XnView Software

In XNView Classic search you can search for Image/Video/Audio-files.
I'd appreaciate to have this feature in XNView MP also.

Actually it appears to be a bit inconsistent. I tested with the current version 1.4.3 (sorry for using this thread! Should i create a new topic instead?) If you click on the symlink in the frame showing the preview-images and the path atop then XNViewMP jumps to the target folder. If - instead - you...

The image's comment resp. description is shown in the statusbar by XNview Classic.
In XNViewMP it is not possible to set this option.
I find it very useful to see this information when browsing the images.
Now in XNViewMP you have to flip from preview to info for each image

I confirm! XNViewMP handles symlinks different from XNView. I use windows symbolic links to organize my picture's folders. XNView respects the symlinks and just opens them transparently, whereas XNViewMP jumps into the target folder. As a result the entries in xnview.db don't match any more :( Is th...

Maybe in XnViewMP : Tools > Settings > Catalog > Tools > "Import category.db" ? Thank you, Michel! Is this for xnview.db or for category.db? I tried both and in both cases i got a success message. Now in XNViewMP category i find a category xnview with the expected subcategories! And - as it looks l...

Is there any update on this? I searched but didn't find any migration utility.
Category.db mentions

The Issue 570 is closed as "resolved" and i cannot recognize the solution.

I tried with 1.99.1.
It is a bit weird. At first glance it is possible to set comments (descript.ion) and embedded comments (ctrl D). It appears the mpo's are left intact.
XNView itself still recognizes two frames but doesn't show the second frame any longer .

Pop! 8) I'm still looking for a way to have a portable XnView so i can have it together with it's configs and my pictures together with comments and ratings on usb stick and it will work with any driveletter for example. My most recent xnview.ini please find below. I noticed "CustomIniPathFolder=." ...

Yes, we did using Ctrl D.

You've got mail Pierre

Sorry being late, Pierre.
How can i send the picture? Do you like me to add it to this post? They are pretty large - 3648*2736 !

I can confirm to michaeld2. We have XNView 1.98.2 togehter with the image files on an ext. usb harddisk. I used it with my Windows XP system to add descriptions (ctrl d) - worked well. My husband used this equipment with her Win7 notepad and ended up in .bak file copies of every jpg she tried to add...

Randolph,

please compare here:

I'd appreceate if this would be changed to relative paths like for example in the sld-files.
