Re: What's different in XnView MP [Full List]

Great list! :D

Has it been kept up do date? (It's from almost a decade ago now.) If so, wonderful; if not, is there an update somewhere else?

Thank you.

Re: Slider to change thumbnail size in browser

Update: Just learned that XnView MP has this feature and others I wanted. I asked the forum if there was a downside to switching and apparently there's not. So I'll use MP and retract this request.

Re: Reasons for using Classic rather than XnView MP?

Thank you cday for the answer! I was afraid there was some huge downside that I was unaware of.

I too hate changing tools once I've used one for years and gotten familiar with all its nooks and crannies. In this case, I used IrfanView for many years but went looking for something free, fast, and ...

Reasons for using Classic rather than XnView MP?

I just discovered XnView MP, which seems to have a lot (maybe all!) of the things I had wished for in Classic.

For what reason(s) would somebody use Classic instead of MP? I ask in all seriousness.

Thanks!

Re: Slider to change thumbnail size in browser

Come to think of it, keyboard shortcuts to increase/decrease thumbnail size would also work, as would "+" and "-" (plus and minus) buttons on the small toolbar.

[And, of course, the increment/decrement amount would be a preset percentage (to maintain aspect ratio), say 10%, or a preset number of ...

Re: Slider to change thumbnail size in browser

By the way, having the mouse wheel do this when the cursor is in the browser area would be a fine alternative (or addition) to the slider!

Open folder in new instance

I love that you can change the setting and allow multiple instances -- and then (in the Browser) you can drag & drop to copy/move images between them. That makes the need for dual panes much less urgent in my opinion.

To make things quicker/easier, how about this: If you right-click a folder within ...

Slider to change thumbnail size in browser

How about a slider to dynamically change the thumbnail size in the browser? The browser settings page lets you do set the size, but using that requires several extra steps and is somewhat interruptive of workflow.
Thanks!
