Several suggestion

Post by king_arthur »

1. First one (more like a question here):

Where/How can I get more web templates? The default ones all looked kind of the same to me...

2. Is there a way to transfer between description to comments and or vice versa? If not then this is a suggestion.

3. Any keyboard shortcut for adding comments?

4. Is there any option to keep Tagged file even when browsing other folders and an option to clear all tag and also bigger tag box please. I find it super useful in selecting my pics in fullscreen mode and then batch convert them all.

Apart from that I'm super duper happy with XNView. Thanks very much

You have 21 templates in the complete setup, but you can create your own!

You means embedded comment?

I know description is not embedded but comments are. But I like description because i can use ctrl D as a shortcut and it's updated straight away, unlike comments which u have to refresh a couple of times to see it but nice because it's embedded so I guess transferring these information between two attributes is very good.

3. Any plan to apply keyboard shortcut for adding comments???


Thanks again for the reply

Hmm... Not many shortcuts are free, I think we should not use too many Ctrl+Shift+x or Ctrl+Alt+x shortcuts, since those shortcuts are often used as global shortcuts - I use few Ctrl+Shift+x global shortcuts too.

There is already Alt+Enter shortcut for the file properties - there is also a comment there, so what about ability to change a comment in that dialog?

If not possible... "C" is not easy. Perhaps Alt+T (but Alt only is not the best solution) and Ctrl+Alt+T is free. Also Shift+T is free in Browser only, but it might be confusing...

BTW - king_arthur - you can use HotkeyP as workaround, you can set up a custom shortcut there, then just use this command and parameters:

Command to active window

161 xnview.exe&XmainClass

You can find more about HotkeyP in this FAQ topic.

Thanks again for your replies guys...

I really appreciate it...

I will try the workaround for hotkey soon. That seems like a logical hack.. So the only suggestion left is transferring data from description to comments and vice versa.

Cheers guys...
