Sometimes wonderful things happen and I want to share this with you.
User gumb hinted me on this list to showimage as the successor of the abandoned kuickshow, that I urgently need for my daily work. But showimage lacked a feature I need [resizing window without zooming image]. gump provided me the email address of the developper, Martin Koller.
Last Sunday I wrote an email to Martin describing my problem.
Tuesday he sent me an executable with a new version and asked me to test it!
Already this version did what I needed. I sent my report and added some suggestions of features he'd maybe liked to add for future releases.
The same evening I received a new version that included those additional features (settings to turn off hover-menu, change background color; change brightness/contrast/gamma).
Now I have a perfect showimage that is even better than kuickshow was (it also can display RAW files, Filename is showed better [at the beginning of the title, so it remains readable in small windows], mouse wheel can be used for zooming, all windows can be closed with one click/shortcut, brightness/contrast/gamma-changes can be undone...)
It is truly a beautiful thing when it works as intended. Not only did you get your needs addressed, but you have made showimage better for everyone with the help of a very dedicated developer. Do you do climate as well? It's hot as hell in Texas and we need HELP! -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
