Suggestions & requests
Opened this issue · 3 comments
i tried before this app many years ago
i remember it was too fast and still it is, also it has really small size compared to others
but its not easy to use, so i gave a one more chance 6 month ago
here is my experience
Missing features & suggestions
-ico,icns,svg support
-double click to toggle between fullscreen & windowed view
-open with menu
-my background set to black but app flashes white on opening images. you can clearly see when opening black image. its minor but blinds at night
-dark mode support for context menu
Confusing features & settings
-Settings not saving until i hit set as defaults button. i guess it should automatically save settings like most apps do
-ExchangeXButtons=true.should be set as false by default. mouse next / previous buttons mapped wrong, next works as previous & previous for next, my mouse model logitech m720
-ShowFullScreen=auto;should be set as false by default.if image size bigger than screen resolution it will automatically opens in full screen mode instead of windowed mode
-DefaultWindowRect=sticky. sticky mostly known as fit image to window, i couldnt find this setting for a while
-FileDisplayOrder=LastModDate.Should be set as FileName as default or auto setting can be created. Ordering could be get from file explorer from current folder. Only my downloads folder using modification date ordering so using LastModDate as default is confusing one
For creating auto setting i guess you can use shell. i can get which window has which ordering on powershell
(new-object -com Shell.Application).Windows()|%{
write-host "Ordering : " $_.Document().SortColumns
write-host "Window Handle : " $_.HWND()
write-host "Window Path : " $_.Document().Folder.Self.path
}
Thanks for keeping it alive
-ico,icns,svg support
I just tried opening an ICO file and it opened just fine. Can you send me a sample to test with if it's not opening for you?
-open with menu
exists already, see #63 (comment)
I'll look over the other suggestions more carefully.
And, the settings thing is kinda right now really wonky, and it'll take me some time to get through all the glitches and problems.
thanks your efforts on new release, i checked ico files opening in jpegview without problems, it shows highest resolution one
configured my open with menu thanks for tip. also i got an idea for context menu. maybe it can be fully customizable like on notepad++. that would be cool using with less items it has too many items on current status.
this one their xml template
https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/blob/master/PowerEditor/src/contextMenu.xml
they preferred to give ids to predefined items

UserCmd and OpenWith also will be handy with this
ofc many ways to skin cat, have a nice day
sorry mistakenly closed
Final edit
i found double click to full screen possible with adding "MouseDblClk IDM_FULL_SCREEN_MODE" to KeyMap.txt file
here is ordered request list with fixed or unnecessary ones removed and added few
-icns,svg,multi page pdf support
-Customizable context menu (explained above)
-Dark mode support for context menu
-importing settings
-Option for auto saving after rotate (without changing quality)
-Show an info overlay when one of auto zoom mode, fit to mode, sampling mode... changes
-Auto setting for FileDisplayOrder(explained in first post)
-Can't navigate to next image on ico files
-[minor bug] App flashes white while opening images even background set to black.You can clearly see when opening black image
these should be default values for settings, explained in first post
ExchangeXButtons=false
ShowFullScreen=false
FileDisplayOrder=FileName
