request option for overlayed image comparison (like XnView Classic)

Post by kbyork »

Tiny variations in photos are difficult to detect in side-by-side image compares.
And this is the only thing I still use from 'XnView Classic'.

'XnView MP' does better in every regard; except for image comparisons.
For minuscule differences; I have not found anything better.

Small glitch. It doesn't work if activated inside for the first time. It needs a close/open sequence.

Most probably that it is something tied with the initialization.

Steps:

1. Unzip in a folder the 0.94b2
2. Run it and select two photos.
3. Click on Compare - now we should have them side by side
4. Click on „Use tabs”. The tabs should appear.

Expected:

If the user clicks alternatively on Tab #1 and #2 the photos should change.

Actual:

The photo doesn't change.

Notes:

A close/open of the Tab and/or the program solves the problem. It happens only for the first time.
