1.8.x - Open With function within archives to open pictures with external programs

Post by masterjp »

I am often using the 'open with' function from browser view to open pictures in photoshop elements for editing.
There are no problems.

Today I tried to use the 'open with' function within a zip file.
The zip file contains jpeg files only.
I chose one jpeg file and tried to 'open with' adobe photoshop elements.
Adobe photoshop elements started, but did not open the selected picture.

I think XnViewMP needs to temporary extract the picture file first
and then open the temporary saved picture in the program (In my case adobe photoshop elements).
