3. Enigmatic state of category.
I imagine that category can be assigned or not assigned. XnView MP obviously thinks that category can be semi-assigned or "maybe assigned".
I have no other explanation for the fact that checkboxes in Categories tab, checkboxes in Categories window and category names in Category Sets list have tri-state. I assume that means "not assigned", "probably assigned" and "definitely assigned" state of category (see other screenshots too).


The 3-State here is:
-Ticked= Is Assigned
-Not Ticked= Not Assigned
-Gray= Is Assigned,, atleast 1 File in a selection of multiple. ( 3 files Selected and 1 is assigned) Reason you missed this is because you
were testing with 1 file

I haven't tested the other stuff you mentioned, I do see problems
-I like the interface, but I really don't like how lots of these tabs and panels act more like plug-ins..
-Things don't Sync right, Filters, File moves, Photo settings, and stuff you use in 1 section doesn't carry over to other sections
-Options are all over the place. ( Like the hidden one you mention) Some things are really hard to find..
I'd love to see options consistent.
