✨ New Features & Improvements
- Auto Hide Caption buttons (minimize, restore, close) when mouse is not near them. (#164)
- Ctrl + Drag should move the window (#143)
- Click outside photo to exit for Maximized and FullScreen state now made optional (#103)
From last release
- Added a completely new rendering pipeline for pan and zoom animations. All your lagging/stuttering issues should be fixed now. FlyPhotos can now render at your monitor's maximum refresh rate and has been tested up to 144 FPS, resulting in an incredibly fluid, buttery-smooth experience. This is the biggest rendering rewrite since launch. (#153).
- Added a redesigned and reorganized Settings screen. (#156)
- Added an option to scale small images to fill the screen instead of displaying them at 1:1 size as default. (#154)
- Added an option to launch FlyPhotos in Maximized, Fullscreen or Previous state. 'Previous state' option remembers size, position, and monitor windowed/maximized state (but no fullscreen). (#149)
- Added more keyboard and mouse shortcuts. See the table below for the complete list. (#146)
- Added keyboard shortcuts for launching external applications. (#155)
- Improved SVG rendering speed while reducing memory usage. (#145)
- Added support for selecting RAW decoder priority for speed or compatibility. (#139, #97)
- Added support for Russian (thanks to @syntetic-sudo), Ukrainian (thanks to @prodbysanya), Portuguese, and Simplified Chinese / zh-CN (thanks to @xpxxy). FlyPhotos now supports 18 languages! (#133)
- Lots of optimizations for speed and performance.
