I often like to open a file by right clicking it in windows explorer, using the ‘open with’ right click menu.
The problem is that when I use this method to open a raw in RT the resulting instance of RT does not have a file explorer tab or any apparent way to include or navigate to other raw files.
Is it just me? Is there a solution to this? It would be nice to be able to include other files in a RT session/instance invoked in this manner. Ultimately it would be nice to simply have RT open to the file explorer tab with the file highlighted in its folder location with the other files in that location.
My 2 cents are that if we remove the “no file browser” mode, someone will complain because the file browser takes too much memory for its little peecee. So I guess that we should have both ?
It would just be great to have it as an option in settings…to be able to choose…
Just like having the RGB values show out of 255 rather than as a % (this is another future hope). Just as an option tucked away in the setting somewhere.
On windows, I wrongly thought this feature was present in 5.2. I don’t remember when it was added. It will be present in 5.3
With this feature, when installing with installer (not with zip) you have the possibility to add “browse with Rawtherapee” to the directory context menu.
If you want you can test RawTherapee_dev_5.2-187-ga1f86bff_WinVista_64.zip

Thank you. If its possible can this option also be added for individual files as well as folders? Files is ideal because often you know which photo, and in a folder with lots of photos it still takes a few seconds to load all the thumbnails and then find the image.
Like two entries, open with RT editor and open with RT?
but it’s not implemented yet.
