Thumbnail cache database: use WebP compression

It's well known that WebP provides a much better quality/size ratio along with alpha mask support, so using it for the cache-db could provide two advantages - smaller size and/or better quality. And lossy low-quality compression can still store the alpha channel, which can used when drawing the ...

Enable custom background color if thumbnail shadows enabled

Currently when "Options->Browser->Thumbnails->[x] Use shadow" is enabled, it is not possible to set custom browser window background color, which is quite a nuisance when a dark Windows theme is used, for example. It would be really great if XnView would allow both options at the same time.

Re: Scan (acquire) restore normal (silent) behaviour

JamesGT, just google for "xnview 1.95 download", there are plenty of archives maintaining older versions of software (filehippo, afterdawn, etc)

Re: Scan (acquire) restore normal (silent) behaviour

please, fix it someday not too far distant in the future :-)

p.s. me thinks there's no need to follow e.g. aging adobe in their ridiculous decision in photoshop CS4 that breaks 15+ yrs old keyboard map for switching color channels (Ctrl-1, Ctrl-2, ...) in favor of unusable combinations ...

Scan (acquire) restore normal (silent) behaviour

Recent versions of XnView introduced an additional yes/no dialog when scanning (acquiring) multiple pages from e.g. a scanner device...

I wonder do I have words to describe how cumbersome and anti-human this turned out to be. Now I have to answer this additional question to continue scanning, then ...

FileProps dialog - no Ctrl-Tab/PgDn(Up) kbd nav.

FileProperties dialog (Alt-Enter) currently has no support for ultra-handy standard GUI keystrokes Ctrl-Tab / Ctrl-PgUp(PgDn) which should switch dialog's pages ('tabs').

p.s. btw, it'd be great for dialog's caption bar to have the File's name (e.g. Properties - filename)

p.p.s. :-) remembering ...

folder history combobox :: no keyboard navigation

atop of FileList pane a combobox with folder history list is placed.
It is accessible only via mouse point-n-click - no way to activate it via keyboard .
When the combobox has keyboard focus (text insertion cursor blinks there), it responds to a standard Windows keystroke (Alt-Down) to unroll the ...

[Suggestion] In-memory extracting of archives

Currently browsing a zip archive is though immensely handy feature of XnView but it leaves thousands of temporary extracted files and those are NOT deleted (which alone is a bug of course).

But the main thing is that since it's very easy to extract archived files to a RAM space (as far as I know ...
