Let's start with an overview of the new features in NeoFinder 8.6.

The immensely popular QuickFind global search tool has received a massive upgrade.

As requested by many users, you can now specify which types of files you search, and you can also limit the search to just the selected catalogs.

We have already updated the NeoFinder Users Guide with all the new features of QuickEdit for you:

Of course, the even more powerful Find Editor is also around, and has so many additional abilities: https://www.cdfinder.de/guide/5/5.2/findeditor.html

NeoFinder 8.6 adds a new web gallery template, "Concertina", a beautiful way to present your photos on a website.

Check out a live sample here: https://www.cdfinder.de/gallery/Concertina/

The NeoFinder Users Guide has been updated, where you can also download the template if you wish to make modifications!

The Display Filter in NeoFinder 8.6 has been massively expanded, and yes, you can now hide folders!

A new settings popup window gives you fine tuned control over what you want to see, and you can even use multiple options at the same time, allowing to see just, for example, all landscape photos with a GPS GeoTag, keywords, but no Person data yet.

You can even have NeoFinder only show currently available file on online volumes.

NeoFinder can now read textual contents from Apple Pages, Apple Numbers, Apple Keynote, Microsoft Excel, and Microsoft Powerpoint files. That allows you to search for text content in these file types with Neofinder as well.

We have updated the NeoFinder Users Guide for this:

Another often requested ability is reading .GPR files written by the popular GoPro Action Cameras,

The custom GoPro file format has no integrated thumbnails, so NeoFinder needed to be able to actually read and understand the file format. With some help of a code library from GoPro, we were able to accomplish that for you.

Not only will you get a thumbnail and all integrated metadata, including GPS GeoTags, and more, but NeoFinder can also show you the GPS files in its built-in Light Table, and export these photo files into other formats, like JPG or HEIC.

Enjoy!

Yes, NeoFinder can catalog thumbnails and metadata of Apple ProRAW photo files!

And you can add ratings, keywords, descriptions and all, too.
And convert these files to other formats.
And check every pixel in the Light Table.
And build beautiful web galleries with them.
And so on.

You could add a visual textual watermark to your converted and exported images and photos in #NeoFinder before, but now you can also add a watermark image as well!

We have updated the NeoFinder Users Guide to contain the latest information about that.

NeoFinder 8.6 is now able to catalog RAW images in the new Olympus ".ORI" RAW format, and of course you get thumbnails, and metadata for your photo library!

The versatile Icon View in NeoFinder 8.6 can display three additional fields:
EXIF Lens Name, Camera Name, and Camera Maker.

Of course, sorting is also possible by these three values now!

Did you know tat the integrated video player in the Gallery View of NeoFinder 8.6 can play Sony MXF video files, if Final Cut Pro X or other Apple software with the Apple Pro Video Codecs are installed on your Mac.
