All credit to CW for his classes, but I have nothing but I use PMView, associations are set so if I double click on any graphics file, PMView opens it.

Hi All, I have to support Gavin in this. I have had the same issues plus some that will only open from the icon with the built-in image viewer. However, I can't say whether I still have this problem as my HDD recently dropped dead and I rebuilt my current setup from a backup and I can't remember which images had the problems Gavin describes. I'd also like to get rid of the built-in viewer, but I have been unable to find the exe-file that drives it. -- Leigh Bunting Colonel Light Gardens South Australia ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- **= Email 6 ==========================** Date: Thu, 06 Jul 2006 23:30:10 +1000 (AEST) From: "John Angelico" Subject: Re: Alternatives to JPEGIO On Thu, 06 Jul 2006 20:58:15 +0930, Leigh Bunting wrote: Hi Leigh >Gavin Miller wrote: > >> I also have PMView.

IIRC it was called "IB.EXE" as in the most boring name IBM could think of for an "Image Browser" Best regards John Angelico OS/2 SIG os2 at melbpc dot org dot au or talldad at kepl dot com dot au ___________________ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- **= Email 7 ==========================** Date: Thu, 06 Jul 2006 23:49:36 +1000 (EST) From: "Ian Manners" Subject: Re: Alternatives to JPEGIO Hi Gavin >I also have PMView.

I use :- checkini /C /Y:2 cleanini.exe /DelAll /multipass /LogDel /c /Restart I also occasionally delete the key "PM_Workplace:FolderPos" by using unimaint be aware that this key stores all your folder/icon positions etc but it can get very big on systems that get a fair bit of use, zapping this key will normally shrink the size of your os2.ini file very dramatically as well. I do this about every 12 months on my main OS/2 box as I do a lot of image/photo manipulation, sorting, merging etc, as well as it contains my primary mod/midi archive which has over 6,000 files, and is also used for writting DVD's so gets quite a workout with its 2x160Gb HD's As always, backup your ini files before doing (not that I can talk) Cheers Ian Manners http://www.os2site dot com/ All of life's problems can be solved with the proper caliber. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
