"-scan" command-line option has no effect

Post by Xavier Joubert »

Hello all,

I tried running XnView 1.80.3 on a Windows NT computer with the "-scan" command line option as described in "Info/Command line help...".

This has no effect. XnView behaves the same as when there's no option on the command line, and I have to manually select "File/Acquire..." to scan a picture.

Thanks for your help,

Xavier Joubert

-scan must start the Acquire dialog, you have nothing at all??

Hello Pierre,

Sorry for late reply...

Exactly.

I have to click "File/Acquire..." to get the dialog. The scanner is a Canon one. Appart from that, everything works OK.

Merci de ton aide ! ;)
