XnView: MP 1.3.0 64bits (Sep 6 2022)
OS: Windows 64bit (21H1)
File save formats repeats twice in "Save as type" dropdown list of "Save as" dialog, see attached screenshot.
Effect:
UX degrades slightly.
To reproduce:
1. download xnView MP archive, extract and run program
2. F12 - open seettings
3. go to Formats -> Saving tab
4. Clear checkboxes by pressing Clear all button (or manually)
5. Tick some checkboxes
6. try to save image file
Actual behaviour (bug):
File save formats repeats twice in "Save as type" dropdown list of "Save as" dialog, see attached screenshot.
Expected behaviour:
every format has to appear only once

yes you have the most used formats at the top, before the full list

But my "full list" consist of only 5 formats, I selected in settings.
Guess there shall be functionality to disable this feature "most used formats" in this dropdown as it is very confusing.
OR
Rework it into "favourite formats" feature, that allow file formats always appear on top.
Visuaaly it can be done in "Saving" tab (on screenshot), by adding one more column with checkboxes.

Thanks for the post, user0. Same problem here. Well documented, with screenshots, nice suggestions (agreed).
If this is somehow not a bug, may I also request a setting to disable "most used" formats (listed first). Or better separate the lists.
I also have only a handful of formats selected for saving, so this just clutters (doubles) my list without helping (and just looks odd).

"Fixed in 1.3.1." Once again, thanks Pierre. I've very much appreciated XnView MP (and XnConvert) for years.
And these forums are part of that, allowing some gentle "feedback" (but not too much). Thank you.

Yes, this is fixed now (1.3.1), all formats are only listed once. Thank you! It looks much cleaner. Brain approves.
See: Settings, Formats, Saving, "Show most used format at beginning", uncheck.
