XnView Software

XnViewMP 1.5.5 64bit
Windows11 (22H2), display resolution 3840x2160, win scaling 150%

Viewer/Browser - metadata
- Tag, Rating, Label, Category stuff is spread across different app's menus in different modes, which is inconvenient
- single 'Rating & Colour label' menu grows too large, especially with 'move to next image' options

Suggestion
General

• split 'Rating & Colour label' into 2 groups

• reorder items (0-9 and 'Unset' option on top)

• Color labels - add missing 'move to the next file' commands and rename them to 'go to next'

• (optional) rename
  - Rating → Set Rating
  - Colour label → Set Colour label
  - Category → Set Category

Viewer / Browser
