What I want to be able to do is open any folder and double click the image and navigate to the next image with arrows. Without having to view that folder through a separate gallery program.
But instead what happens is I double click and arrows do nothing and stays on the opened Pic. So what I have to do instead is select the Pic and press space. Then I can navigate from left to right. But, then it doesn’t automatically move to the next row, so I have to press down to go down to the next row then move from right to left then down then left to right. Or change from my preferred grid view to list view so I can just rely on a single key press or change to multicolumn view which I’m not a fan of . Having to do those extra steps feels so clunky.
Is there a way to change the behavior of the default preview so double clicking to open a picture in a folder leads to being able to just use arrows to move to the next image in the folder? I’ll even accept hitting space and the image preview automatically moving to the next row. Or another program to replace it that is a better image preview?
Decided to check it out on Windows. Built resize function is really useful. It’s on ninite too which is perfect for easy updates. Went and replaced the default viewer on Windows with it. Will save me time when I do want to do a light edit that doesn’t require me to go into something like photoshop.
Edit: wasn’t a functionality I expected but it handles videos too and in the correct ratio compared to pixea where some videos showed up stretched. Impressive little program.
That’s exactly how I use it. The batch functions are killer and don’t neglect installing the full panoply of plugins, those make it the Swiss Army knife of viewers.
Also, the dev is a true prince, personally answered a question I had a decade ago and it was an awesome interchange.
