Preview Graphics in Context menu [Enhancement]

Post by CurtisMinBC »

Hi there,

Just hoping and wondering if it would not be too time consuming to implement the ability to convert and/or preview graphics via the context menu.

Just my $0.02.

RGDS & TIA

Good that you pointed onto the conversion aspect of your post, again. Actually, XnView DeLuxe (the commercial version of XnView) offers both a preview and conversion in the context menu. But only simple format conversions are supported, e.g. 'Convert to BMP', 'Convert to GIF', ....
Are these simple format conversions what you would expect in XnView?

Helmut,

Yes like nothing fancy just your most popular graphics formats such as JPG, GIF, BMP etc. as for myself and I'm sure other users a like if they need a fast conversion they really do not have the time to load up a program to do so.

Just my $0.02.

I think XnView DeLuxe does all what you want (preview and simple conversions), so you just have to wait that the preview and convert features of XnView DeLuxe make it into XnView. ;-)
Think Pierre knows whether this is planned or not.

Yes, XnView Deluxe has this feature, and i'll put soon the same thing in XnView.
