XnView Software

Hi

Is there any way to fast printing image tumbnails without the need to create, save and later remove, any kind of file, neither contact sheet or web page?

Thanks a lot.

If all the needed thumb-nails are visible in the browser, the least you can do is "PrintScreen", then import the Clipboard and make a picture, crop to remove the useless parts and save it >> Print... No miracle possible !

You would like to print the thumbnail view?

Hi!

Good solutions those above. But ...

I'm looking for a feature such that use in ACDSee.

I would like to print a set of selected images in small size on a piece of paper.

I would like to print several images on the same A4 sheet of paper.

Printing Web frames in not an elegant solution. I would like to have control over a printing margins, the thumbnail size on the paper, additional info (name, size and so on), images distribution on the paper, automatic distribution amog several pages if tere are many images, etc.

Thanks

Contact sheet is not enough? Maybe just shortcut is missing, with shortcut you could just press e.g. ctrl+x, enter, ctrl+p.

Right, doing this I should select my desired images, (ctrl-x, enter is not necesary), ctril-p, and now Size: custom, Width: 10 (keeping spect ratio). In this way, the image uses 15% of white area of my A4 paper.

BUT ONLY ONE IMAGE PER PAGE. I would like to use the renaining area of the paper to print more images, using less pages. In this way 20 images use 20 A4 sheets, but they souli‚(üe only five.

ONLY ONE IMAGE PER PAGE? Do you want to print images or thumbnails? Have you already tried "Contact sheet" and changing options there?

That's THE BIGGEST problem XNView has! I've used ACDSee Classic (v2.45 or something like that) and it's just a matter of seconds setting proper size of the thumbs, proper margins, what details to go with it in the print (like filename, etc) and printing.

In XNView, I have to set the size of the page in PIXELS?! Who prints in pixels?! Give me a preset size of A4/B4/Letter, etc format and that's it. Thumbnails in rows and columns and margins in pixels? How about an easy slider for the size of the thumbs, two click-arrows for "more/less images per row", "more/less columns" and a spacing slider that puts an even margin around the images?

See, the whole process could be MUCH MUCH more user centered, goal oriented and frankly the XNView authors could really benefit from books like "The inmates are running the asylum" and "About face" by Alan Cooper...

I also miss the possibility to print a contact sheet on A4 paper.

Would it be possible to change XnView in th contact sheet, so that we could select the setting either in pixel (as now) or as a printer sheet A4 (dimensions in cm)
