Auto Scroll

The image gallery, Keybindings Window, and the Image Info Window now also support auto-scrolling with the middle mouse button.

Performance

Faster startup time and less resource usage.

File Size

PicView is now built with Avalonia using AOT (Ahead of Time) compilation. As a result, the file size is reduced from 215 MB to 129 MB, with no reliance on separate .NET installations.

Improved SVG Support

Loading SVG files is now significantly faster, and quality doesn't degrade when zooming in.

Miscellaneous

  • Separated Save and Save as options, replacing the Show file saving dialog setting.
  • New flip animation added.
  • New copy animation added.
  • Suggest file extension when using conversion. Delete the old file to the recycle bin when converting the extension.
  • Cancellation improvements, resulting in better performance when switching between images.

Bug Fixes

  • PicView now uses the default Windows minimize animation when minimizing and restoring the window.
  • Fixed incorrect rendering of the image gallery thumbnails when changing their size.
  • Fixed a bug causing multiple thumbnails to be selected at once in the gallery.
  • The context menu no longer unexpectedly changes size.

Language Updates

  • Added: Brazilian Portuguese translation by @andercard0.
  • Added: Turkish translation by @odest.
  • Fixed inconsistencies and mismatched translations.
