For some reason, it does not open the images as a floating window.

Sorry for my bad English!

The floating window has the same size as your active terminal window (it should be at last). It looks like the image exactly fills the terminal window in the first screenshot. This is true?

yes, it's true. :) I'm confused that it doesn't put the window in the middle of the screen. Then the only question is how I can get it to have a floating window like IMV. Sorry for my bad English, and thanks for the reply! :)

It is the main feature of Swayimg for me. So, it works as designed =)

You can use -g to define own window geometry, for example:

$ swayimg -g 100,100,800,600 photo.jpg

This is a very good solution to my problem! (btw RTFM :grrrr) I just need to find the perfect center X Y coordinates...
