XYplorer question

If any of you are XYplorer users perhaps you can answer this usage question.

When using XYplorer's dual-pane mode, is there a way to swap the locations of the two panes, top to bottom, or left to right? In other words I'd like to be able to switch their places.

 

Panes menu command:

Swap Locations - swaps the locations of both panes.
Hold SHIFT to open the locations in a new foreground tab on each pane.

Is that what you want?

 

Yes and thanks (don't know how I missed that)!

 

If you use that command often, you can make a button:

I have a question, is it true that XYplorer is quite slow when it comes to rendering thumbnails? I'm using the freeware version and it's not nearly as fast as for example IrfanView and XnView. Also, it seems to not cache the thumbnails.

 

It is slow, get FSviewer as image viewer instead.

 

To clarify, I use XYplorer only to view thumbnails of video files, for some reason it doesn't work in XnView and I prefer not see any thumbnails in Win Explorer. But it's way too slow.

 

it is as it is - slow.
