Show Zoom percentage as OSD in Fullscreen (XnView)

Post by budz45 »

hi,

In VLC, KM or any video or media player for Windows we can use a OSD (on screen display) for the simplest of playback actions, most commonly volume control.

I would like if Xnview and XnView MP had an option to enable OSD for Zoom


Also add some OSD options for text colour and time delay (how long the OSD displays before it fades)..

Fullscreen info may contain zoom already, in both versions. Press I key to toggle the info.

No, that toggles Filename info and even the text for that is not as clear as it should be....

It's fully customizable, you can remove items you don't need and add zoom.

Thanks Dreamer, I'm using this nicely in MP win 0.25. The opacity feature is really great.

OK I request a further 2 things for this 'Info' window:

1. I would like configurable text (bold, italic and importantly text size) options. I think it could also have a lock on the maximum text size that can be used, (like 20 or 25 size maximum) so that users don't make the info text, unnecessarily, too large.

2. It would be nice if the Info displayed all the info of ability even if it's not present in the image to use because the current empty brackets don't look too appealing. Also some colons ":" and prefix the actual zoom percentage with "Zoom:" I think would all look beter. Look at my picture I made below to show you (the green ring shows the modified picture of what I would like):
