Appearance (Main Window)

Post by Hakim Antoine Said »

Hello Every1 :wink:

My intention is Not To Offend, i Just Give My Humble Opinion, And i Try To Make The Appearance Of XnViewMp Much More Sophisticated!... Especially in The Main Window

The interface (The Appearance Of The Main Window) in FastStone image Viewer is Literally A Real Visual Beauty, its Design is Exquisite, Really A Perfect Main interface, Very Well Designed!

in XnView MP, its interface (Main Window Appearance) Doesn't Look Modern, it´s Clunky, Visually Unappealing When Compared To FastStone image Viewer

i Would Fix 3 Things, And... A Few More Tweaks

in The Screenshots i Show Those 3 Things To Fix, And Remember... And Making Some More Tweaks, For A Better Order And Being More Perfect

As i Said Before, i Only Give My Humble Opinion, And Without intending To Offend Anyone, Especially To The Creator Of XnView MP, All My Respects To Him, it Would Be Great To Be Able To Fix Those 3 Things (And Some More Tweaks), And Thus Make XnView MP Much More Modern And Visually Attractive :!:

Thanks So Much For Reading
i Look Forward To Seeing Those Changes And Enjoying it Even More!

Hugs

I think FastStone's UI is really good (menu structure,colors,thumbnails), but I can't say the same about its settings.

Speaking about yellow color on your screenshot - you can change it in Settings > File list > Format color tab

FastStone image Viewer its interface is Another World
it´s impressive, Awesome, Great, Outstanding
its Structure is Unbelievable... Literally Another World

BUT... i Agree With You, its Settings is Not Complete

XnView Has its Settings Complete, BUT its Main Window Mmmm :evil:

in Fact... XnView its Functions Do Not Go Hand in Hand With The Design Of The interface, it is Rough (Clunky), it is NOT Modern, Literally NOT Visually Appealing

My Words Are Always With Due Respect

Unfortunately it is The Truth About XnView, Archaic interface, Ugly, if Pierre Makes Those Changes With The interface, XnView Would Be LIETARALLY COMPLETE :!:

For Me, Now XnView it is Halfway, That´s The Truth, And i Know A Lot Of People Think Like Me, That´s For Sure :!: But it Can Fix it :mrgreen:

About Settings > File List > Format Color Tab... Gr8 user0, it Works, Thanks :wink:

Now Only 2 Left For Making Changes With The interface And A Few More Tweaks And That´s All :wink:
Always Keep Going :wink:

Hi Pierre :wink: Thanks A Lot For Replying
My Windows Explorer Doesn´t Has Vertical Lines HaHaHa :mrgreen:

First

Please Take A Look At The interface Of FastStone image Viewer, its Windows Explorer Has Vertical Lines, When Someone Double Click On A Folder, it Will Drop Down And Shows The Path With Vertical Lines, That´s The idea, XnViewMP Doesn´t Has Vertical Lines When You Double Click On A Folder

Second....

XnView its Thumbnail icons Are Square, FastStone image Viewer icons Are Rounded Corners

Third

Again Take A Look At The interface Of FastStone image Viewer, it Has A Perfect Order in Everything, Please Take A Look At The Attachment image Of FastStone image Viewer, And Look Below... it Shows Details But in Order, How Many Folder Have (But it Shows it in order, Below its Square), The Same For... How Many Files Are, And if You Wath Below The Big image, it Shows Details Of The image in Order, FastStone Has A Perfect Order in Everything , including When Shows Details Of The image, if XnView Had That Order And Vertical Lines When You Double Click On A Folder And Thumbnails With Rounded Corners, XnView Would Be Perfect, Literally Perfect :!:

My intention is To Help, Not Criticize, And Always With Due Respect :wink:
Always Keep Going :wink:

i Really Love XnViewMP :wink: But.... in The Main Window... it Needs A Lot Of Tweaking And Fixing

it Should Be More Modern And More Visually Appealing

As i Said Before, The Powerful Options Of The Software Do Not Go Hand in Hand With The interface.

it Really Needs Tweaking And Fixing

if XnViewMP Had That Order And Vertical Lines When You Double Click On A Folder And Thumbnails With Rounded Corners, (...And Some More Tweaks...) XnViewMP Would Be Perfect, Literally Perfect :!:
Always Keep Going :wink:
