Problem with slide show from command line

I select pics (jpgs) and options for a full screen slide show and the slide show runs fine. I save the slide show as a file. I run the slide show from the saved .sld file and it works fine. Then run the same .sld file from a command line. The images are not scaled to fit the screen, but rather seem to be enlarged so that only part of the image fills the entire screen. I am guessing there must be a setting somewhere that I need to change, but after poking around some, I haven't found it.

What am I missing?

Thanks in advance,
Richard

Sorry if I wasn't clear. Instead of seeing the full picture filling the screen (as I do when running the show from the XnView GUI), when I run the show from the command line, the screen is filled by a small section of the pic which is enlarged to fill the entire screen.

Pierre,

I discovered the source of the problem. I had an older version of XnView hanging around in the folder that I was working in. It works just fine with the latest version.

Thanks for solving my forum user account problem so quickly, and thanks even more for making such an outstanding product available to us all.

Cheers,
Richard
