NOTE: If installing on top of version 1.6 or older, uninstall that version manually first. Otherwise, an error will occur preventing you from installing the new version (see #107). This was fixed in v1.7.1.

What's New

This release includes all the enhancements non-critical issues that have been addressed over the past months, many of them based on user feedback (thanks everyone!). The most noticeable are:

  • Custom sample folders are now displayed correctly in the top menu
  • There are more controls available when visualising images in an icon tab (zoom, background colours, etc.)
  • Tabs can now be reordered by clicking / dragging their titles (i.e. as in most multi-tab programs such as internet browsers)
  • An Edit with OfficeRibbonXEditor context menu entry for Windows Explorer can be set up for relevant file types. This is disabled by default but configurable in Settings
  • There is a new installer mechanism using InnoSetup (which uses .exe installers instead of .msi ones). Thanks to this, an installer will also be available for .NET Core from now on

For a full list of closed issues since last release, see below.

How to install / use

Download one of the items from the Assets section below.

Compressed .zip files do not require installation (i.e. will not create any
entry in the control panel's program list). When feasible, these will contain
a single .exe file.

The .NET Framework builds require at least version 4.6.1 of the .NET Framework
Runtime. The .NET Core builds are still experimental and require at least
version 3.0 of the .NET Core Runtime (the one for desktop apps is enough). If
you need any of these runtimes, check Microsoft's .NET download page.

Note: As of version 1.6, both the installer and executable are cryptographically
signed. In the long therm, this should prevent security warnings in Windows due
to untrusted software being executed (see #74). This will not take effect immediately,
as it is a reputation system based on the number of downloads. Similarly, when
attempting to download the assets, some browsers might show warning messages
indicating these are not commonly downloaded, but it is completely safe to do so.
