Categories and miniature problem

Post by Kenny96 »

Maybe I can't find the right option but I have a problem.
Example:
I have 2 folders full of images, I have labeled some pictures inside both folders with the label "lands". In the navigation frame I select "categories" -> "lands" and, in the miniature frame, xnview shows me all pictures with this label. Double click one pictures and it will open in a new tab, all ok. Now when I close this tab I come back to the miniature frame but now it show me the content of the original folder where I have saved the image selected and not the list of pictures with the "lands" label.
This is very annoying because I'm forced to reselect every time the correct category to show me again the list of miniatures that I want.

P.S. I'm using XnView 0.56 on linux

I found this puzzling.

I was bitten by it also. Why it should at tab close to reselect the just closed picture? IMHO it should be separate or, at least, with an message between them:

Code: Select all

"Do you want to revert the browser to the closed image?" 

[ ] Do not show this again

{yes}     {no}
