Free kipi plugin opengl image viewer 0.1.1 software for linux

While Digikam is a great app for managing your images, it lacks a good and fast image viewer in my opinion. Unfortunately, the fastest image viewer for KDE, Kuickshow, is not available as KIPI plugin. Therefore I wrote this plugin to fill that gap
Main features:
- works as KIPI plugin
- fast image loading (about as fast as kuickshow)
- fast zooming/panning (faster than kuickshow)

Quick Image Viewer (qiv) is a very small and fast GDK/Imlib image viewer designed to replace the classic image viewers like xv or xloadimage. Quick Image Viewer program runs on FreeBSD, Linux (libc5/glibc), Solaris (SunOS) and HP-UX.
Main features:
- moving & zooming image in fullscreen mode.
- setting image as x11 background (centered,tiled,stretched..) with user settable background color
- fullscreen viewing with a great statusbar
- external "qiv-command" program support
- screensaver mode
- brightness/contrast/gamma correction
- real transparency
- maxpect (zoom to screen size while preserving aspect ratio)
- scale_down (scale down to big images to fit screen size)
- slideshow (with random order if you want)
- filename filer
- flip horizontal/vertical, rotate left/right
- delete function (move to .qiv-trash/)
- jump to image number x, jump forward/backward x images
Enhancements:
- This release has some bugfixes and new options.

Image Viewer is an image viewer with real-time interactive pan and zoom viewing that uses the GTK+ toolkit and Imlib (or Imlib2).
Image Viewer can open and save to any image format supported by Imlib, rectangular crop, grab the screen, print, and display on the root window.
Main features:
- View
- Convert
- Grab (Screenshot)
- Print
- Rotate
- Crop
- Resize
- Display on Desktop
Enhancements:
- A bug was fixed in the saving of animated GIF images in which looping was not an option.
- The disposal method support for GIF images was improved.

image-viewer is a very simple Kommander script. But written following one of the 2-3 tutorials you can find on the net. Included in tarball you can find this guide to introduce in Kommander GUI. The site is: http://applications.linux.com/article.pl?sid=04/12/17/2033227&tid=49 and was written in 2004 by Michał Kosmulski

I know people want to use this great program..but documentations are very poor...this example helps people who wants to learn something about simple array, combobox, label and connections between signals and slots..very very important.

So, i hope the guide and the example will be usefull.

Gwenview is a fast and easy to use image viewer and browser for KDE.
All common image formats are supported, such as PNG (including transparency), JPEG (including EXIF tags and lossless transformations), GIF (images as well as animations), XCF (Gimp image format), BMP, XPM and others.
Standard features include slideshow, fullscreen view, image thumbnails, dragndrop, image zoom, full network transparency using the KIO framework, including basic file operations and browsing in compressed archives, non-blocking GUI with adjustable views.
Gwenview also provides image and directory KParts components for use e.g. in Konqueror.
Additional features, such as image renaming, comparing, converting, batch processing, HTML gallery and others are provided by the KIPI image framework.
Main features:
Image viewing
- Gwenview can load and save all image formats supported by KDE, but Gwenview can also browse GIMP files (*.xcf) thanks to the included QXCFI component developed by
- Lignum Computing.
- It correctly displays images with alpha channel, using the traditionnal checker board as a background to reveal transparency.
- Gwenview let you accurately control the way images are scaled: you can zoom in and out or automatically scale the image to fit the window. You can also lock the zoom factor to keep the same zoom between images.
- When browsing JPEG images with EXIF information, Gwenview automatically rotates them according to the EXIF Orientation tag.
- It can show image properties and image specific meta-information like Konqueror does.
- Since version 1.1.8, Gwenview knows how to show animated images like MNG or GIF.
Image manipulations
- Gwenview does not try to replace your favorite image editor, so it only features the most simple image manipulations: rotation and mirroring. If JPEGTran is installed, Gwenview will perform lossless manipulations. For more complex image manipulations, you can start any external tools from Gwenview. You can define your very own selection of tools to fit your needs.
Browsing your collections of images
- Gwenview features the necessary file management operations: copy, move, delete, rename and dragn drop images. It has full support for KIO slaves: you can browse FTP/Windows shares, go into tar balls or zip files.
- Depending on your needs and on the type of images you are browsing, you can choose to use a detailed file view or the thumbnail view, which features three easily accessible thumbnail sizes.
- The keyboard browsing allow you to go from one image to another without loading all the images between them.
- Reach your collection folders fast with the folder bookmarks. The bookmarks are shared with Konsole and KDE file dialogs.
Presenting your images
- The fullscreen with optional overlayed image file and the simple built-in slide show allows you to present images the way you want them to show.
The interface
- Gwenview features a folder tree window and a file list window to provide easy navigation among your thousand images.
- It uses docked windows, so you can alter the layout in any way you want. You can also browse your images in full screen.

stic bundles a few Linux tools which are intended to support the task of collecting an unreasonable amount of pictures (preferrably in JPEG format).
similar
a program for detecting duplicate or very similar images. It maintains a
database of characteristic color samples which it compares with submitted
pictures. similar depends on libjpeg and ImageMagick s convert (on a
modern Linux desktop system these components should already be present).
Storage medium may be a usual filesystem or a MySQL database. There
also is a MySQL UDF extension to compare image samples within SQL queries.
similar contains the communications module described at sagent.
simv
a core program to perform file management tasks on an image collection.
Its main purpose is to coordinate file movements with the content of
similars database. This applies to importing new files which get tested
against the existent collection, as well as to inform similar about moving
and deleting files within the collection.
simv depends on an external image viewer like ImageMagick s display
(should already be present on a modern Linux desktop system) or John
Bradleys xv (quite a fast one).
simv contains the communications module described at sagent.
sagent
a standalone version of the communications module used in simv and
similar. This software receives input from its start terminal and multiple
clients, distributes several types of output back to them, and is also
able to act itself as such a client.
Since communications mainly use TCP/IP there is an encryption layer
(Blowfish with 128 bit keys) which provides user authentication. Any
single activity of such a user may be particularly permitted or denied.
Secure connections should be possible that way as long as one can defend
the keyfiles and programs on client and server host against foreign
access.
Front-end connection software is available in C, Tcl/Tk and PHP3 to build
custom clients. In the most primitive case even telnet can act as a
client.
The standalone program sagent may be used as communications node in a tree
of clients. Another purpose is to be a shell frontend which sends commands
to a server and receives its replies.
snntpbatch
a command line based NNTP (newsgroups) client. It is mainly intended for
automatic download of images by use of a filter language. Nevertheless it
also downloads the message texts and converts them to HTML code which
includes the downloaded images. Also, it is capable of automatically
posting sets of images to the newsgroups.
The tools are designed to be very independent of the system flavor. On an
average Linux desktop there should be no need to update existing system
components. Actually one could use stic without having display equipment for
graphics.
Any program activity which is possible in dialog may also be performed in
batch runs. Therefore the tools are quite suitable for users who like to get
boring tasks automated and manual tasks simplified.
All tools code is open source and distributed under BSD license.

Enhancements:
- The new encrypted protocol version 0.2 is standard now : SHA-1 seal, 256 bit keys, variable chaining initialization vector.
- The protocol of a connection is chosen by the client and may or may not be accepted by the server.
- See sagent command -security options clientprotocol , serverprotocol.

Todo: AIO plugin is a todo plugin for Aero AIO.

Usage:

- Install the plugin via the Aero-AIO config dialog.

gimmage is an image viewer that is perfect for command line usage as it accepts directories and image filenames as arguments.

It has an in-application file browser that allows users to select and drag images and directories into the image viewing area in order to have them displayed.
