Creation of new categories
Posted: Fri Jul 30, 2021 8:54 am
Some suggestions for ease creating categories:
1. Add a context item 'New category' so that categories can be created via right click in Explorer view. Currently through right click only existing categories can be assigned.
2. In XnviewMP each category is unique, even if names are identical. However there is no way to create a new category with an existing name via the input field in the panes Categories and Category Sets. The option [Create New] does not get offered when the typed name already exist. So it might be an idea to offer the option to create a new category also even when the typed name already exist, because it would be much faster to create a category through this. Otherwise the user has to switch to the Categories pane or the Categories Filter, select the desired parent category in the tree and create the new category there.
