DNG file display small (Solved)

Post by 35OL35 »

I use XnView MP 1.8.6 in Win10

All photo formats can be viewed normally using XnView MP, except DNG which is very small. My monitor is 2560 x 1440. Assuming my DNG size is 5472x3648px, it should fill the monitor when viewed at 100%, but in reality it only takes up 1/3 of the monitor. However, other formats such as jpeg, RAW, and Tiff are all normal.

The result is close px DNG 100% smaller than Jpeg、RAW 30%

DNG 5472x3648px @100% auto fit monitor

its for Convert/Batch convert
for Viewer tab and Preview pane - Camera RAW, use [Full size] in Settings > View

After changing Settings > View, which would seem to be the relevant parameter?

Or File > Format settings... > Read > Camera RAW > Use --Full size ?

I was asking which of the above settings you tried changing, or did you change both?

'Settings>View - Camera RAW' is used when loading an image in preview or image's tab
