[macOS] XnView MP displays hidden system files (.localized, .DS_Store) in Browser mode

[Michi]

Hello!

I am using XnView MP on macOS and noticed an issue with hidden system files in the built-in file browser.

Issue description:
XnView MP displays hidden macOS system files (such as .localized and .DS_Store) in the file list inside folders (e.g., in ~/Downloads/), even though these files should be hidden by default on macOS.

Details:

Other third-party macOS applications (like Pixea, CapCut, etc.) correctly respect system-level file hiding and do not show .localized or .DS_Store.

Changing internal program settings regarding hidden files does not hide these system-level hidden dot-files in the browser view.

Because .localized is visible in XnView MP, it's easy to accidentally delete it, which causes macOS to lose folder localization (e.g., reverting "Загрузки" back to "Downloads").

Could you please check if the file browser filter can be updated to respect standard macOS hidden file rules or properly filter out dot-files starting with a dot (like .DS_Store and .localized)?

Thank you!
