XnView: MP 0.84
OS: Windows 10 - 64bit

When joining images horizontally, the user can choose the vertical alignment for the images. The alignments available in the drop down list are left / center / right which are horizontal alignments.

Effect: Irritating user interface

To reproduce:
1. In XnView browser select several image files
2. Select Create ยป Join Images...
3. In "Join Images" dialog, choose "Horizontal" layout.
Actual behaviour (bug): In the "Alignment" drop-down list there is left/center/right. :bug:

Expected behaviour: In the "Alignment" drop-down list there is top / center / bottom.

Note: This bug was found by user "Hans H.".

I think entries should be
"Left / Top"
"Center / Center"
"Right / Bottom"

I think the interface would be even clearer if entries of the "Alignment" dropdownlist would depend on the type of joining (horizontal/vertical).

This is the way it's displayed in v0.85 beta 1. Confirmed fixed

This hasn't been implemented, yet. Perhaps in a future release...
