Shotwell como alternativa Linux a XnView
Actualizado el
Nuestra opinión
Shotwell is a partial replacement for XnView, but it targets a different user. If you need to view 500+ formats or perform heavy batch conversions, Shotwell will fail you. It is best for GNOME users who primarily manage personal photo libraries, need basic non-destructive edits, and want simple organization by tags or dates. It lacks the breadth of file support and batch processing power that defines XnView. Choose Shotwell if your workflow is centered on importing from cameras and light editing; stick with XnView if you handle diverse file types or require bulk metadata changes.

Abrir tus archivos de XnView
Shotwell opens standard raster and RAW formats (JPEG, PNG, TIFF, CR2, NEF, etc.) that XnView also supports. It does not open proprietary or obscure formats that XnView might handle. Since Shotwell uses its own internal database for organization, it does not read XnView's catalog files. You must import the actual image files into Shotwell to use them. Exporting from Shotwell produces standard image files compatible with XnView, but it cannot export XnView-specific project or batch settings.
