XnView Software

XnView: MP 0.98.3 64bits
OS: Windows 64bit

When tagging a image via the shortcut key (spacebar) nothing happens.
Tagging from the menu, works like normal.

Working fine under 0.98.2

in browser or viewer mode? But SPACE is not the shortcut, it's Ctrl+T or do you have changed it?

But @M-a-v is right, in previous versions, spacebar has tagged a file, meaning that it triggered the checkbox.

In Browser mode, sorry.
In view mode the Ctrl+T works fine.

Ctrl+T too? You had 0.98.2, because SPACE doesn't tag file in 0.98.2

Oh no no, sorry. I think I confused things a bit..
In 0.98.2, Browse mode.. on a selected thumbnail.. if you pressed SPACE, it would tag (check box) the thumbnail.

In 0.98.3, Browse mode.. on a selected thumbnail.. SPACE does nothing.

In 0.98.3 (and 0.98.2), From the menu (View > Tag > Tag current) it works as it should.
Thou this is a bit tedious to do, it does work. But using the Space bar to tag and untag files is much easier

FYI.. I have only changed 1 Shortcut, for Browser mode.. Ctrl+T to Change timestamp

Maybe the settings are left over from an old version on XnView... I have been using it for quite some time.

Wanted to test something.. So I went through and reset all the shortcuts to default. Tested it.. Ctrl+T works fine for Tag Current
I set the shortcut for Tag Current to SPACE.. Tested it.. not working.
Closed and reopened the program.. Tested it again.. not working.
It says it's set for SPACE, but it does nothing..
Maybe SPACE is no longer valid for a shortcut key...

FYI.. still running 0.98.3

SPACE is used by default, you need to change settings>interface>keyboard - SPACE

Hi, the dot "." works very well. - And it's the same shortcut like Apple/Fotos. I enjoy using xnview - it offers such a lot of functions! Thanks a lot!

Please make it so SPACE can be used to tag images again. I used that all the time. Now I can't get it to work no matter what I pick under settings>interface>keyboard>SPACE

Sorry, I don't understand the question. I'm not familiar with "categories". I'm trying to tag images in the file list. If I set the shortcut for "tag current" to "Ctrl+T", pressing Ctrl+T applies a checkmark to the selected file. If I set it to "Space", pressing spacebar does nothing.

Which version do you had before?

Same problem for me here, 0.98.4.. Space no longer works to tag files, in Browser or Fullscreen.

In 0.97 it works in Browser mode OK, but will not tag/untag in Fullscreen.
