XnView Software

XnView: MP 1.3.1
OS: Windows 64bit (22H2), display resolution 3840x2160, win scaling 150%

Edit IPTC form.
Some menu items does not work for 'Caption' and 'Special instruction' fields

To reproduce:
1. run clean portable XnViewMP
2. open Browser mode
3. rigth click on image → Edit IPTC...
4. press incert button of 'Caption' OR 'Special instruction' fields
5. click 'Edit history..' item
edit history form suppose to open, but nothing happens
5. click 'Sort alphabetically' item
item suppose to became ticked, but nothing happens

Thanks to your detailed description I can reproduce the problem.

related issue (B):
1.3.1 - Edit XMP - visible internal names / some menu items missing

to be honest I just do not understand the logic now, there are still 2 types of context menus remain:

• full version, with history and sorting

  

  contect_menu_full.png (3.11 KiB) Viewed 960 times

• short version, with out history and sorting

  

  contect_menu_short.png (1.69 KiB) Viewed 960 times

Do they both valid OR there is a bug and only ONE (full version) shall remain?

on multiline text field, there is no history

fixed in 1.4.0b1

This problem is supposed to be fixed in XnView MP 1.4.0. Please check and confirm the bug fix here.
