The only thing preventing me from using this 100% as an end user is GIF / APNG support etc, and file associations. would love to use this

riyasy commented 1 week ago

Yes. I would also wish to do that. The problem is the app is so fast only because everything is manually drawn using Directx as in games. So for GIF animation, the application would need to do that manually and cannot rely on .Net builtin components which are terribly slow. I shall try to do this when there is a ample time as it is not a simple thing to do.

What about the file association prompt. You can run a script for that on install

NextdoorPsycho commented 1 week ago

it would also be nice to not have the image viewer open fullscreen on the first open, that should open to the size of the image, with maybe some padding at the bottom, but thats more of a convenance thing, just opening it in fullscreen is a tad annoying when you are doing things on the screen in the first place

Just clicking outside of the image can exit the full screen. Starting up full screen can be made an option in settings screen in a future version.

I don't know which filetypes Fly will be able to open as it depends on the WIC (Windows imaging component) capable codecs installed on the PC. You can see all WIC capable file types in Fly's settings dialog. If the user adds a codec or uninstalls a codec, this can change. (PSD's are supported in FLY itself regardless of a WIC codec available) For frequent filetypes which you use, you can use "Always open with" option in windows.
