Solved How to remove custom dimension in Resize box

[GeoS]

I've added a custom dimension in the resize box. Now I want to remove it. How? I only see "Add to Standard Box" but no Remove button.

I looked in i_view32.ini file and in the Windows registry, but could find no way to remove a custom dimension. It must be stored somewhere, but I have no idea where.

The standard entries cannot be removed. The ones you added yourself can be seen and modified/deleted in the ini-file

Be carefull to use a UNICODE-capable text-editor!

I added a new size, and expected to find it in C:\Users\Bhikkhu Pesala\AppData\Roaming\IrfanView\i_view32.ini under the [Resize] section, but it is not under the [Edit] section either.

It works for me in both, the ZIP-installation and the installer-made one.



PS: Bhikkhu Pesala, did you leave the 'create custom selection' with SAVE or CANCEL?

[Bhikkhu Pesala]

I wonder what the reason is for the difference?

[jazzman]

oops, I was in 'create custom selection',not in resize. Sorry!

Yet, the resize works too:

[Resize]
ResampleFilter=5
ResizeAspectRatio=1
UseResample=1
Sharpen=0
PercUsed=0
DPI=72
Unit=0
ResizeAutoDPI=0
FastResampleDown=1
ResampleGamma=0
CustomSize=* 1200 x 800|

(this tested in the installer version)

I did a search of drive C: for all *.ini files and found that IrfanView 32-bit was using a file in VirtualStore.



I found the relevant lines in there and deleted them, which fixed the problem.
