Blocking the importing of categories
Posted: Mon May 11, 2020 6:15 pm
I have a few thousand vectors, many of which are from stock sites.
I recently turned to XnView to replace Adobe's slow and buggy
Bridge. Back then, I categorized images inefficiently - by placing them into separate folders. But I only use a dozen or so categories, so it wasn't that bad. But like I said, Bridge is slow. And XnView offers categories, so here I am.
Vectors from stock sites often come with categories assigned, which XnView imports. The thing is, many of those categories are useless ("name", "vector", "color" and "drawing", just to name a few), so the Category tab winds up full of junk. I would like to be able to be able to block XnView from importing categories, so I can assign my own without fuss.
Sure, I could delete all the useless ones, but then I'd have to read through the list to weed out mine from theirs.
So, is there a way to block the importation of categories?
Thank you,
