XnView Software

Hi,

In XnViewMP enable the setting "Single view for multi-opened files"....

...Now go to 'Browser' and highlight 3 image files and press "Open" (or Enter key) and the 3 files open in there own file-list as normal expected with this feature enabled, good

However...Go to Windows Explorer and drag & drop the same 3 image files to xnview.exe (in XnViewMP program folder) and the same 3 image files open in separate tabs which is NOT CORRECT....They should actually still open in 1 single view tab with the file-list of '1/3'

As I said before this bug issue does not exist when I Open the 3 test image files from the 'Browser' .....The big issue also does not exist when I Drag & drop the 3 image files directly to the view mode interface

So this needs to be fixed for opening files with xnview.exe too . Please fix.

--------------------------------------------
Note: On XnView win 1.9x when I drag & drop the same 3 image files to xnview.exe (XnView 1.98) the files open in 1 single tab As long as the ancestor feature setting of "Open only one view for multiple files (startup & drag-drop)" is enabled.

So this small fix is accordingly needed for XnViewMP too.
-----------------------------------------------

tested on Windows 7 sp1

I can't reproduce, if i have "Single view for multi-opened files", i drag&drop 1 files on xnview.exe, and i have only 1 view

No you must Drag&drop more than 1 file.

Try Drag&drop 3 files with the setting enabled and see that it opens in different tabs instead of the correct 1 tab

Sorry made with 3 files, same thing

I am very sorry Pierre, I think I made a mistake. Ok, there is no bug here.......Sorry I have been testing a lot of other things and got confused.

Please ignore this topic.
