The Viewer

This is a simple recursive slideshow image viewer inspired by the old built-in Windows Image Viewer from Windows XP and 7. It looks at the directory it is based in and all subdirectories for files with certain image filetypes and adds them to a list for playback. Created using WinForms.

Features and Notes

  • Multiple selectable timer options, ranging from 3 to 60 second intervals (toggle with spacebar or button click).
  • File deletion checking. The program will remove image paths it can not find from the working list and will attempt to find the next/previous image in the list.
  • Fullscreen mode with (toggle with 'F' or 'F11' key).
  • Quick hide viewer (activate with escape key).
  • Working folder selectable at runtime.
  • Image update limiter (default 250ms) to reduce potential CPU load and make the program more usable.
  • Has functioning argument capabilities for opening a specific image.

TODO

  • Windows file association to make better use of currently CLI-only argument capability.
  • Make recursive/top-level only building of image list context-aware by determining number of arguments.
