Externally refreshing category tree
Posted: Tue Jul 19, 2016 4:27 pm
I am looking for a way to programmatically cause a refresh of Categories in XnViewMP.
I change metadata externally, and just need to "Refresh" the displayed Categories. Executing View/"Update catalog from files" works, but I'd like to do this automagically.
Would I need to use something like AutoHotkey or is there a better way?
Would updating the sqlite DB instead of metadata in files work any better? (With this method, I still need to View/"Update files from catalog" to see the updates.)
Any tips/tricks/advice?
Regards,
Paul.
