XnView Software

I'm not sure if this is by design, or something on my end. But since I think the last 2 or 3 updates, I no longer have an 'Estimated Quality' in the Info panel 'Properties' for JPG's.

The panel itself seems to have issues to. There used to be a Histogram panel which is now MIA.
If I right-click on the tab area of the panel, it's still listed on the context menu as item, but when I put a checkmark in front, the histogram stays gone...

Yes!

Makes no difference. Nothing happens when I toggle the checkmark.

Ok, Judging from your question. I'm gonna wipe it from the system and re-install.
Perhaps I left some traces behind the first time I tried.

Ok, system cleaned of all possible traces... re-installed.
Got the histogram tab back, but the panel stays empty all the time.
Estimated Quality for any and all jpg's still MIA...

Please send me a jpeg sample file?

You're serious? You're going to tell me you don't have any jpegs available?

ok... here's one... err.... three... No Estimated Quality No Histogram

There are no such issues with clean 1.7.1
try to delete xnview.ini

However, some strings may be omitted if they are too low / "incorrect", eg:

• no XY DPI

• no Dimension (your image on the right)

  

I think values that "always exists" (eg Dimension, DPI) should not be omitted even if they are close to 0.

I did, and yes, both the Estimated Quality and the Histogram showed. But as soon as I started modifying the layout using the "Free" menu item, both disappeared again, not to be seen again until I delete XnView.ini again...

I give up...

if it were the only thing... but I I reported several versions back that I can't even watch MP4 files without it crashing after closing the viewer tab.
Plus the weird tab behavior in the browser when you rename files... and yes, I know it's a QT thing, but a workaround shouldn't be that difficult...

Please send us your xnview.ini

As requested.

Two zips, one where both EQ and Histogram are present:
And one where they went MIA after layout change: Name of the zip is indicative for the contained and literally named "XnView.ini" file with layout having/lost EQ and Histogram.
