add a new browser<>fullscreen option in switching mode

Post by bigboo »

Hi
I don't use the viewer mode at all in xnviexmp, only the fullscreen mode and the browser.

Could it possible to add an new option Browser<>fullscreen only (without the force associated viewer<>fullscreen) for the double-click switching mode ?

I want an easy way to switch between browser and fullscreen even when I open a file using Windows explorer first.

Thank you

no new switching option is required
change Start with file to Browser OR Browser - Fullscreen (Settings > Startup)

Wow, thanx. Let me say, that's not clear at all. I just came to XnView from Faststone Image Viewer but I was already giving up just because here it seems that simple things are made difficult mainly for lacking of straightforward choices, and this was one of the most annoying. No help file, the question mark in the dialogs doesn't seem to work... There's a funny saying in Italian that more or less translates to "office for complication of simple affairs". Very nice piece of software, otherwise.

Now, how do I open/close a viewer window with one click or keystroke, both from the browser and fulscreen? With Faststone it's ctrl+enter.
