That would be great, yesxnview wrote:perhaps the font color in red/green only??
- File size in bytes (if Tools » Options... » File List » Misc. » Use always bytes for filesize is activated)
- Timestamp including seconds
- Optional checksum calculation

Re: Revamped replace/overwrite dialog
At least for the checksum, I would prefer both (red & green).xnview wrote:or perhaps simply red when values are different?

good point.xnview wrote:or perhaps simply red when values are different?
a single color to indicate the error is what I would do too.
don't ask the user to process more information than needed and keep the ui consistent.
I'm not sure how relevant these md5 check app are in that regard.

Re: Revamped replace/overwrite dialog
- As mentioned in a previous post, Use always bytes for filesize (Tools » Options... » File List » Misc.) should also take effect in the replace dialog, IMO.
- To prevent the 32-digit MD5 hash from being truncated, the right column of Replace and With could be moved a little farther to the left.
- Making use of PathCompactPathEx (or PathCompactPath?) would improve the display of truncated pathnames: X:\Eeny…Moe\Destination\ vs. X:\EenyMeenyMinyMoe\Des
- Although the files are not identical, XnView displays the same checksum for Replace (X:\Test\Destination\placeholder.jpg) as for With (X:\Test\Source\placeholder.jpg).
Code: Select all
Replace: X:\Test\DST\placeholder.jpg (Exif orientation 1) = 3126b90e4c94b4a19380baa7e567c273
With: X:\Test\SRC\placeholder.jpg (Exif orientation 2) = aa00fea6eb31e37090fd21f21fa123b6

Re: Revamped replace/overwrite dialog
For symmetry, there should also be functions for "Replace all" and "Skip all". But to avoid too many buttons, there should be a checkbox "[ ] Apply to all".

But seriously, I see what you mean: Users can select the text (Directory & Name) with the cursor.

This bug hasn't been fixed in the latest release (v2.35).XnTriq wrote:Although the files are not identical, XnView displays the same checksum for Replace (X:\Test\Destination\placeholder.jpg) as for With (X:\Test\Source\placeholder.jpg).
p127537.zipCode: Select all
Replace: X:\Test\DST\placeholder.jpg (Exif orientation 1) = 3126b90e4c94b4a19380baa7e567c273 With: X:\Test\SRC\placeholder.jpg (Exif orientation 2) = aa00fea6eb31e37090fd21f21fa123b6

Re: Revamped replace/overwrite dialog
The fix isn't listed in the changelog but since v2.36 this feature works as expected. Thank you, Pierre!
