Slideshow from a directory

[Mick P. F.]

Hello,

If you create a slide show with "XnView MP" and select a directory as the source and not the files inside this directory, the files will be included in the slide show and not the directory. This means that every time you delete or add files in this directory, you have to change the slideshow. This is very inconvenient!

It's easy to change the code and this behavior so that the files aren't saved in the slideshow, and the directory is read every time the program starts and loads the saved slideshow (as the argument to the program).

Kind Regards,
Michael
