Why make an image viewer?

The reason is because I hate the windows image viewer, it has problems. If Microsoft isn't gonna fix them, then I can make my own image viewer.

Basic Idea

When you open a file with this program, a list is created and the file is added. All the other files under the same directory will be added too. And my favorite part: files inside sibbling directories will be traversed and added as well!

Current Features

• Traverse all files and directories under the same directory of the current image file.
• Drag and drop files or folders on to the image viewer window to add them to the list.
• Show the current image list loaded in the program, and clicking on the item will show it in the system explorer.

Features to add

• Scroll/Zoom:

  • Zoom toward mouse
  • Fix scroll out problem (when zooming out and the pic gets too small, it gets stuck, i.e no more zoom control)
  • Add an option for mousewheel: Next/previous image, or Zoom in and out Thumbnail view

• Drag and drop:

  • Add support to start from a Directory
  • Make sure that images are in correct order upon loading, and the opened image is what's shown.

• GIFs:

  • Fix playback speed
  • Fix blank screen on GIFs: (sometimes if a gif takes too long to load, it will stay all blank, until navigating away then back)
  • Fix properties label problem with gifs
  • Start GIF from beginning when navigating to it (current problem: GIF is always playing even when not open).
  • Show GIF timeline Fix deletion problem

• ImageList:

  • Put the image count in the title
  • Align imageList text to left (maybe add an icon too :D)
  • Add option for what clicking the image list does, either shows in explorer or navigates to it (or something else, whatever).

• Remember zoom level when navigating between images.

• Have a buffer load list for the next and previous 10 pics.

• Add a custom sort menu to sort by (Dimension, type, …)

• HOME/END hotkeys will go to the first/last pictures.

Less significant

• Remake prettier GUI (or get someone to do it)
• Add feature to reverse image saerch pic (using Google or Tineye or whatever).
