1.51: (Feature Request) - Overlay messages for 'Preview'

Post by budz45 »

Hi again,

Before commencing with a image convert, I would like to see a smart text info message that would display as an overlay over the picture in preview. The message would basically state the new predicted properties of the file(s) before I convert them.

So I make this this request for when I use the Resize feature in the "Actions".

So for example, if I resize a large picture like 4567x3837 to 75%, there is currently no info to show me the calculation of this percent resize before I do my conversion.

Here is a mock-up of what I mean
(so an Overlay fade would appear over the preview picture for a brief 2 seconds showing some info about anticipated "Action" just used)

Maybe this feature could be disabled by default (experimental feature) with the use of a tickbox option added in the XnConvert "Settings" to be able to simple enable/disable this function. I would find the feature highly useful in my workflow :mrgreen:
