And back again... - v4.9.2 (2021-02-22) - considerably optimized disk usage [and performance] when rescanning the folders [in the context of a SQLite database files list] - now one can abort safely a merger of databases or «regenerate entire list» when a database is opened - optimizations for «searc...

Hello! I just released a new version of Quick Picto Viewer . It brings many features mainly related to image files organization. And as always, bug fixes, some embarassing ones I found in the previous release. - v4.9.1 (2021-02-18) - [new] QPV will now highlight the groups of duplicate images in thu...

Good to hear! But... Why not use MsgBox2hwnd? It's set as global to this end.

@warapik217 .does this work with my edition? Afaik, it should, but I'm not sure.

Best regards, Marius.

I also tried @robodesign's version but I get this error: Error at line 911 in #include file "C:\Downloads\Msgbox2_robodesign.ahk". The following variable name contains an illegal character: "=" The program will exit. Thanks for any help! ;) Hey! Please try my latest version found at: https://github...

Hello, guys!

I made an image from scratch, from zero, in Quick Picto Viewer. This is the result:



It is for Valentine's Day ^_^ . I used only QPV's tools, nothing else.


Best regards, Marius.

Hello, guys! I am back at it again.... with a new release bringing many bug fixes and minor new features. - v4.8.9 (2021-02-11) - [new] image preview in files list view mode - [new] desature colours option now brings a panel with live previewing, where users are given finer control over how to desat...

Hi Marius, on my not very new PC there is a noticeable lag when navigating from one photo in fullscreen or large window view to the next/previous. Is there some setting to reduce that delay, perhaps an option to preload/cache the N next/previous full images in memory? Your program is growing more c...

Hello, guys! A new version of Quick Picto Viewer is here: - v4.8.6 (2021-02-03) - [new] freeform polygonal and curved/spline-based selection areas support [ Shift + L ] - [new] edit freeform polygonal shape or selection after finalising it - [new] by holding long left-click during freeform shape dra...

Sorry, maybe I didn't express clearly. Gdip_SetInterpolationMode(G, 0) fast and no moire. Other options, such as Gdip_SetInterpolationMode(G, 1) slow and have moire. Thank you . I have read your messages attentively. I am aware of those modes. I spent days to analyze the different modes. Default mo...

Ah, okay... I thought it is something else. The image resizing algorithm is not implemented by me, but by Microsoft in GDI+. By default, high quality resampling is not activated in QPV, but it is available to turn it on at one click away... The moire effect is not something akin to Quick Picto Viewe...

I have a small suggestion, when qpv displays images, it always has a mosaic visible to the naked eye, maybe it would be better to set the default display quality to high and cache the images at different sizes[like 90% 70% 50%]. Could you please elaborate on the mosaic you see? Can you please provi...

Hello, guys! I am back with an overview of the project. Initial purpose of the project: I wanted to create a simple script that allows me to load rapidly a list of files. In other words, I wanted to a create a script for image slideshows over hundreds of thousands of files, after I grew frustrated b...

At line 606 [approximately], you include Gdi+ library; you should reference the source of it...

@tuzi . I wanted to give it a try, but the raw file on Github comes with chinese characters - the encoding is messed up...

As a side note: I am glad Quick Picto Viewer is an inspiration. Thank you .

Best regards, Marius.

tuzi . Thank you for letting me know . PixelOffset=2 also solves image resizing errors in GDI+, in particular when working with small resolution images. I already have planned for months to release a new GDI+ library version with bug fixes and improvements, but i keep on post-poning it...I will get...

@tuzi . Please let me know if the function by just-me is working well. As stated previously, if it's a good one, I'll replace the ones in the library.

@iseahound .thank you for this. I'll test it as well.

Best regards, Marius.

tuzi .... thank you for the feedback. Yes, I am aware of the problem, but those functions were not implemented by me. I have not struggled to fix/improve them in that regard... If you are willing to improve this function, to have a proper rounded rectangle, please do so. I would like to replace the...

Thank you . I am glad you are inspired by my work. The question you pose is difficult... Please study the code of Quick Picto Viewer ... În general , what I do is, maintain a cache of the image drawn on screen, and whenever needed, i reuse it. You must resize the image, and create clones and keep tr...

A new version has been released... sporting bug fixes. - v4.8.2 (2021-01-20) - [new] option to have the folders list from «Manage folders list» panel populate the folders tree view; same option available also in «Update selectively»... - more friendlier with screen readers - various bug fixes Please...
