XnView Software

XnViewMP 1.7.1 64bit
Windows11 (23H2), display resolution 3840x2160, win scaling 150%

Browser - filelist / navigation pane
Win File Explorer has functionality to invoke full/old context menu via SHIFT+RMB click.
However, XnViewMP uses different shortcut (CTRL+RMB click) in Browser, which is inconvenient.

Suggestion

• unify behviour of system context menu invoking
  
  • click on file/folder in filelist / folder in navigation pane
    - use SHIFT+RMB instead CTRL+RMB
  • click on empty space in filelist
    - always show application context menu (CTRL+RMB shows nothing right now)
