Actually to be precise, I'm still stuck on a old version of ACDSee since it's gotten so bloated. I would really like to move to XnView, if it would just get full archive support.

I don't suppose the new version finally addresses this missing functionality?

Until this time, XnViewMP still has no zip support. This is the ONLY reason I cannot move from XnView to the MP version, even XnView has no Unicode support. I barely encounter the Unicode problem, but usually the zip problems.

Still waiting for this function. This is the one and only function that forces me to keep using ACDSee. I must have this function or I cannot use an image viewing program.

Continuing to wait for this functionality. I check back every update only to have to delete the program again since I cannot use it without this function. This is the one and only reason I am not using your software, a decade after first mentioning the issue. XN view would be better than ACDSee in every way if it were possible for me to use it, but I literally cannot do my job without this one specific critical functionality.

I feel your pain bro. +1
Those that are using ACDsee which version is to be used, that's not so ancient, yet no not that bloated?

I continue to be stuck using ACDSEE 3, a version from nearly a decade ago, because this feature is still absent.

I'd just like to +1 this request. MP is even better for photo browsing/sorting than ACDsee at this point and without all of the proprietary BS. For many of us, browsing archives is the only thing holding it back. :mrgreen:
