It's good to have categories in XnView - even if they make XnView a bit more complex and might confuse novice users.

When right clicking in the categories panel the context menu opens up. Currently the entries are:

A.) "Categories" context menu

Code: Select all

Delete
Rename
-------------------
New category
The order of the menu items relates to the order in "Favourites" context menu, but differs from the order in "Folder" context menu which is:

B.) "Folder" context menu:

Code: Select all

New Folder
---------------------
Delete
Rename
I think this needs some standardization, I'd expect "New" to be a top entry and thus vote for solution B.). This order would fit to my proposal in topic Favourites: Context menu.
