Nikon View Browser: Opening Image Files in Another Application
39
Opening Image Files in Another Application
When a thumbnail is double-clicked or a thumbnail is selected
and Open chosen from the browser File menu, the image file
will be opened in the application specified in the Nikon View
Control window’s, Settings panel. Image files can also be opened
directly from any application that supports the file formats used
by the camera.
When image files are read directly from the camera, the creator program
is set to the application specified in the Nikon View Control window. If
the specified application is installed on your system, double-clicking image
files in the camera’s memory card will open them in the application. When
read directly from the camera’s flash-memory card, however, image files
are treated as DOS files with no creator. In order to open such image files
with a double click, you will need to use Macintosh PC Exchange or a
similar control panel to associate the DOS file suffix (extension) “.JPG”,
“.TIF” or “.MOV” with a suitable application. The same restriction applies
to image files copied directly from flash-memory cards.
