XnView Software

Hi,

I would like to use the Descrip.tion file generated in XNview in my own program - is there a summary of the file format available? What are the limitations as far as number of characters, number of entries?

many thanks,
Wolfgang

i don't think that there is a limitation of characters, here is

• XnView Classic
  • Descript.ion
  • Please ID the field for the caption in this picture
  • Descriptions non conservées
• XnView MP
  • descript.ion display unicode incorrectly

HiddenDescription

• When enabled, XnView will hide descript.ion files by setting the hidden attribute to the descript.ion files when writing them.
  Value: Boolean (1/0), enabled by default

Pierre, XnTriq

thanks a lot - this is what I was looking for.
Is it correct that the quotes around file name are optional and must be used to allow "liberal file names" with spaces etc?

regards,
Wolfgang

Let me know if the info provided in the following topics answers your question, Wolfgang. If not, I'll keep digging for more.
