Anyway to disable/delete all the output formats I'm not using.

Post by acoolrocket »

Since I just use jpeg/png/webp/psd, I want a way to disable or delete all other output formats since its just too much to go through.

Any lines I should look into in the .ini, admittedly already lost?

You can select which save formats are displayed on the Output tab here:

Settings tab > Load format settings... button > Save tab... :D

Possibly a new option in 1.98?

No change lists for XnConvert yet... :wink:

There's no save tab for me, its Camera RAW, PS/PDF, OpenEXR, HDRI, PSD, RAW, PCD and FITS..

That is the Settings tab > Load format settings... button > Read tab...

I am using XnConvert 1.98, on Linux which shouldn't be relevant, and I have Saving, Read and Write tabs as shown in my screenshot above.

But I did erroneously refer originally to the Output rather than the Settings tab, my mistake... :idea:

If you don't have those tabs which version are you using?

Wops 1.96, updated to 1.98 and its now there and working!

Welp that was awkward, thanks for that reminder. Maybe add an auto-update feature?

The Settings tab has a Check for program updates option...

Mine is set to the, probably default, value of Weekly but not sure whether I ever get any??
