Allow removal of PNG embedded comments when saving

Post by exener »

In XnView MP's "Save As" dialog box, one can click on "Options".

That will open the "Write settings" dialog box.

In this dialog box, one can click options such as "Keep EXIF", "Keep IPTC", or "Keep XMP".

There is no option, however, for PNG embedded comments. Thus, there seems to be no way to remove PNG embedded comments when performing a save operation.

Can you please add a "Keep PNG embedded comments" option to this dialog box, when appropriate?

Similarly, adding the same option to the "Format settings" dialog box will be most useful.
