How to view only "selected" images? [Solved]

Post by eil »

2 things i can't achieve with XnviewMP, and actually not sure if it can do this at all, so hope smb can give a hint.

1. how to view Only selected images?(in all views) i need to select some 3 or 10 images, and when i push arrows on keyboard to cycle only among these selected.
2. how to view images in selected order in any view? yeap, i saw custom sorting, but in browser mode it works, in fullscreen view doesn't(seems to use date sorting order), and if i try "fullscreen" button in browser view it opens on second monitor(which is undesired and i can't find a way to change)
basically i need to exactly compare say 3 images viewing them in particular order.

Select in browser, and Tools>Open

Settings>Fullscreen>Dual monitor
You have different order in browser and in view mode??

didn't find particular monitor settings for different views(though i exactly was expecting for some dropdown for each mode).
"Dual monitor: Use second monitor"solved my problem - it was On, though i never switched it. as i was using same portable XnViewMP since long ago, when had no second monitor yet, i didn't expect there be some option to "self-willingly react" on second monitor adding. :D
well, it's solved now too.
