Keyboard shortcut to edit images (not view)
I have tried searching for this so apologies if I've missed it. I use one program for viewing images (XnView MP) and another for editing images (GIMP). Viewing works fine - if I double click an image it correctly opens in XnView but I'm trying to create a simple keyboard shortcut to open the image i...

Re: Adding filesize to Thumbnails view
Seemed to be OK again earlier after a reboot but then later on again it started acting really slow again. Seems specific to viewing folders containing mp4 videos in thumbnail view with the overlay code. Can't replicate it consistently but I'll keep an eye on it and see if I can narrow it down to som...

Re: Adding filesize to Thumbnails view
Just as an addendum, it seems to mainly affect folders that contain videos and which also have the thumbnail view with overlays as you suggested. On folders with images with the thumbnail overlay setting there doesn't seem to be any problem. But as soon as I try to navigate a folder of video files (...

Re: Adding filesize to Thumbnails view
Although initially it seemed to be working well (I've set thumbnail overlay to show the filesize and dimensions) it does seem to come at the cost of extremely slow updating and a lot of hanging (anything from 30 seconds to a minute or often a lot more). If I revert back to Details view I don't get a...

Re: Details view shows all columns and not the ones I've defined
Thanks, I'm not sure what happened but I kept on playing around clearing all entries under 'Manage Folder Views' and re-saving them again and eventually it seems to have stuck correctly and works how I expected

Re: Details view shows all columns and not the ones I've defined
For example, I have a folder where I keep all my family photos (and this has lots of subfolders): E:\Graphics\Photos\ and I've set this folder to be viewed as Thumbnails (including subfolders). So yes, that top level folder is listed under Manage Folder Views. When I go to any folder within that one...

Details view shows all columns and not the ones I've defined
Most of the time I want to use a specific view for certain filetypes (e.g 'Thumbnail' view for photos/jpgs) but occasionally I want to temporarily switch to 'Details' view so that I can see more specific info on a file (e.g. the Date Taken column). I've setup a default view for 'Details' that I like...

Re: Adding filesize to Thumbnails view
Check out this: https://www.xyplorer.com/release_25.60.php#CTO And give this overlay definition a try: conf("ThumbsOverlayContent", '<prop name><crlf><prop size *b>'); This is perfect, thank you so much. Although I've used XY for years I don't think I've even scratched the surface of what...

Re: Adding filesize to Thumbnails view
Thanks, yes I've got the dimensions showing, just trying to get the filesize displayed. Will keep looking!pixelsearch wrote: ↑31 Jul 2024 22:27 My bad, I just realize you needed the file size, not the dimensions.

Adding filesize to Thumbnails view
I've tried searching for a couple of hours so sorry if I've missed this but I'm trying to optimize my View setting. What I'm trying to achieve is showing the filesize of each file when using the Views>Thumbnails setting. Is this possible via a tweak or other way? If I use the Large Tiles view this g...

Re: Xyplorer 26 frozen and not responding
Narrowed it down further - in the VPN settings (Private Internet Access) there's an option under Network to select DNS. If I select the default 'PIA DNS' then the hanging in XY (and Windows Explorer) occurs. If I select 'Use existing DNS' then the hanging goes away

Re: Xyplorer 26 frozen and not responding
And just to confirm, Windows Explorer (spit) also can't access my network locations on first launch when VPN Split Tunnelling is on, so it's not an XY issue. As a last question, any idea what program I would add to my VPN Split Tunnel exclusion list to allow network access?

Re: Xyplorer 26 frozen and not responding
I turned Split Tunnelling back on to make the hanging come back but XY loads OK for a split second before hanging so the load times don't look like there's a problem in the log: XY ver: XYplorer 26.10.0200 - Lifetime License Enterprise OS: Windows 10, 64-bit, Version 22H2, Build 19045.4529 (10.0) Lo...
