just want to say... this app is getting better and better... please continue on your great work
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
I hate the fact that edits don't show up as new replies... anyway in case any1 didn't notice, theres a new build that loads images much faster(Woo!!!!)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] amanakbar:
i got an error using the 1.1

when launching... it states:

File or assembly name

'OpenNETCF.Drawing, Version=2.1.0.0,

Culture=neutral,

PublicKeyToken=E60DBEA84BB431B7',

or one of its dependencies, was not found.

please help
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
Oh shoot right! I forgot to include .dlls needed... give me a sec
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
Ok, should be fixed now, just have those dlls in the zip file in the same directory as the viewer.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] amanakbar:
ok, tested the new 1.1 with the dlls

works fast enough... i like it... Superb!

maybe now you can focus on this:

thanks a million for this wonderful app... my love for my touch grows day by day because of the community here
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
I changed the starting post of the thread(was getting too cluttered) and updated the program, now version 1.2. I added touchscreen panning. This might take a little getting used to but is pretty cool once you do. To pan, press the screen and then drag the picture. For obvious reasons, this required changing the gestures for changing pictures and zooming in/out. For those sweep your thumb or finger across the screen(left-right for changing pictures, up-down for zooming). It's best to start with your finger off the screen so it doesn't mistake what you're trying to do with panning. It requires doing it somewhat quickly(don't worry, you don't have to sweep as fast as humanly possible, just slightly faster than panning... you'll see what I mean.) I hope you guys like it. Let me know if you have any problems/frustrations or even if you just really really like it. :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ArcticCat:
1. WE HAVE A CAB file :o)

From now on all of this is my personal opinion :)

2. Zoom out shouldn't work beyond "fit to screen"

3. I still want double click to toggle between 100% view and fit to screen
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] amanakbar:
IMHO i prefer the old way of handling images... panning using a finger is great but i would prefer a button to go into panning mode (like a hand button)... sometimes when i wanted to zoom it pans... and when i wanted to pan it zooms

sometimes when i close the app using the x button on top it just minimize it when it should close

also if possible can we have an automatic zoom to fit height - so that it fills the screen

anyway... this app is Grand!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
I think I'll make a button that takes care of it for you guys and the way it is now for people who like it(After using it a little, I actually prefer the way panning and everything works now). For the X button, that's taken care of by the operating system. Try changing your settings so the x button closes the app(task manager->button tab->End programs by tapping "x"). Zoom to fit sounds like a good idea, I'll get on that :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
New Update! Check the first post for link. Now has a gesture mode that works as it did as of the last update and a double click mode where you can switch between panning or zooming/changing pictures by double-pressing the screen. Simply choose which one you want in the options menu. Default is double-press mode. And yes, it will remember which mode you were last in. Current version is 1.3, enjoy!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ArcticCat:
new version requires new comments :p

To check if the screen is already rotated check the HKLM\system\GDI\Rotation\Angle key

Decimal 0 means Portrait

Decimal 90 or 270 means landscape

Bugs:

1. Press many times on "choose folder" and see what happens

2. Landscape mode is not useful for landscape picutres

3. when u switch to landscape mode there should be a check next to "landscape mode in the menu"

4. When i gesture mode zooming in brings up the cube most of the time for me

Positive thoughts

1. pictures loads much faster this is a great thing thanks

2. The sweep to change is becoming really good too :)

Feature request

1. OK i am insisting i know and it is your decisions after all but I would LOVE to have double click toggle between 100% picture size and "fit to screen" if u want me to stop nagging on this say it and i will :)

3. zoom out not needed below "fit to screen" scale

4. panning not possible when if fit to screen scale

this is going better by the day :) thanks a million
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] amanakbar:
1- i can confirmed this

4- doesn't occur in mine... maybe you should do the gesture from the center of the screen

i already did... anyway it won't bother me much - i'll just use the quit softkey

thanks for putting in the different modes - panning/zooming, just love it!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
Ok fixed that problem with the choose pictures thing not coming up(along with other menus you may or may not have noticed), the cab on the first post is the new fixed one. Sorry about that guys, I tried something out that didn't work and forgot to put it back to normal.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] msoeherman:
Okay... I'm a very beginner at this... but I've installed and I'm getting an error message: "an unexpected error has occured in Picture Viewer.exe. Select quit and then restart this program, or select Details for more information." I've tried this several times and nothing works. So, when I clicked details: "picture viewer.exe Index out of range exception at DeviceApplication1.form1..ctor() . . .

Any idea what I did wrong?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
Hmm haven't seen that one before, if you can, please send all it shows under details, that should help me narrow down what's happening
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] msoeherman:

HI

Great App!!

Please introduce version numbers on first post.

BUG

When i want to delete a photo, picture viewer crashes and i get an "OutOfMemoryExeption" error.

suggestions

-Faster zooming

-doubleklick for fit to screen

-long klick for panning
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Valentin.H:
Strange, i can't see any pictures, whatever the directory is, it doesn't find any pictures!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] erikploeg:
same problem here.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] denny_king:
Traditional Chinese ROM Testing

Hi, Thanks for the app. It was great, while it lasted....

I downloaded, installed the app, chose the directory and tried it out for around 10 minutes, opened & closed the app a couple of times. Everything worked great during that period, gestures and all.

Half an hour later, tried opening the app again, but was faced with the following error:

Picture Viewer.exe

DirectoryNotFoundException

{no embedded error messages was found, thus was unable to display error message}

at System.IO.__Error.WinIOError()

at System.IO.Directory.InternalGetFileDirectoryNames()

at System.IO.Directory.InternalGetFiles()

at System.IO.Directory.GetFiles()

at DeviceApplication1.Form1..ctor()

at DeviceApplication1.Program.Main()

I've uninstalled, restarted, reinstalled the app a couple of times now, and I still get the error.

I would love to continue testing and using this app. Are there any registry settings that I need to change? Would using Resco Explorer in any way affect this app?

Sorry for the long-winded reply, but would like to understand.

Thanks,

(sentence in {} was in Chinese, translation shown, I hope...)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] henftling:
the same here. hough it worked two imes before. Wht i strange that som pics (or better almost all) picture viewer do not like and these are not showing up, doesen´t mater if gif, bmp or jpg al middle size (max 2 Megapixles)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
@valentin: the default directory is the root one so you need to choose one that has pictures. press on "choose picture folder" and find the folder that has your pictures in it.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
@dennyking: sounds like the directory with your pictures doesn't exist anymore, i'll add a check for that in the next build. for now you can delete tbe file "pvlog.txt" under my documents and you should be able to run it again
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Valentin.H:
Yoiu think i'm dumb or something ? :eek:

Of course i tryed with different folders with pictures in it, and thats the same, it can't fin pictures, i 've been trying the first version of your program and I used to have to have the same error, there is something wrong i guess.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
sorry, didn't mean to insult you, just trying to figure out whats wrong. 2 questions: 1: does it show a black box and say no pictures found and 2: are the pictures jpegs? right now the program only looks for jpeg pictures(i'll change that soon) Let me know! :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tankist:
great idea but it's too early for release, imho
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
... too early for release? I wasn't seeing any more major problems on my side or from other people so I took down the thing saying it was having problems. I don't really have any other way of testing other than on my own touch or from other people on this site so considering what I knew I think I made a good decision in releasing it, especially since I still make updates to solve the new problems people find. I'm not and don't claim to be a professional at making these programs, I was just making an app for myself and figured other people would enjoy using it too.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] msoeherman:
Hello MarcusMaximus04,

have you found out anything about my problem yet (see below) I would like to try it, but I'm not having any luck with it :(

Thank you very much for your time.

============================================

Here's the error under details

Picture Viewer.exe

IndexoutOfRangeException

at DeviceApplication1.form1..ctor()

at DeviceApplication1.Program.Main()
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] denny_king:
Great work so far....

Hi Marcus,

Thanks for your reply and I understand your situation. I hope I will be able to provide more feedback to you as well.

I had not deleted the folder where I had my photos, but your solution, deleting the pvlog.txt, allowed me to go into the program again. Once in the app, I was able to choose the same folder with my pictures and use them regularly. I have found out that I had not quit the app in my previous trials, only closing them and allowing them to run in the background.

This time, again, once I quit the app, and tried running it again, I got the same error. I mentioned before that I was using the Chinese Traditional rom. As I have my photos on my storage card, I think that the problem would lie in the path saved in pvlog.txt. On CHT roms, the "Storage" folder is "儲存卡". I opened your pvlog.txt and the path was \2Xa\DCIM\100MEDIA.

I tried experimenting a bit, and changed the path to \儲存卡\DCIM\100MEDIA, saved the file and tried running the app again, but same error.

Don't know if the above helps, but just my 2 cents worth.

Again, just my opinion, for the change folder button, would it be better if you placed it in the menu soft button? Helps save some screen real-estate.

Thanks again.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] amanakbar:
hi marcus,

Please keep working on it, it's worth it.

So far i had no problem in using your picture viewer (ver 1.3) keep up the great work

suggestions:

1) is it possible for the app to take fullscreen - i mean cover the start and everything on the top, maybe the softkeys too

2) can we have the app to show 2 pictures at the same time (part of each), so that when i'm sliding my finger to the left another picture comes from the right, something like the iphone

3) can you change the background to black rather than white

is there anything that i can help? i can try do some graphic work if you want (zero knowledge on programming, sorry)

thanks for this great app
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
@DennyKing: oh ok the chinese ROM might be the reason then. I'll try to see if there's anything I can do to make this thing unicode(hadn't thought of that lol).

@msoeherman:I haven't found anything yet but the error details at least tell me what's happening. I'll continue to look for it.

@amanakbar:

1: yes, if you look under main menu, theres a full screen option, press that.

2: I thought of doing that but decided this way was both much less stressful on the touch and also, I think, looks better. That being said, we'll see about that in the future ;)

3: Yes, and I've already located the black/grey background for the touch and plan on using that as the background with a possibility for choosing your own eventually.

I don't think it needs any graphic work at this point but I'll let you know if I need any :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kasperke:
very nice application.

-the fullscreen isn't working..tried everything. nothing happens when i put a V in the options

-the fingersliding works well. can you make it when you slide a picture to the right..the next slides in from the left..looks more normall then and the other way around to:-)

-black background if possible

and last but not least..a thumbnailpage..so you have an overwiew of the directory of pics.

(artemis 3300)

keep up the great work..i luv this.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] salahnajm:
:D loved the software!! a few things i noticed

1. it crashes often, however when i delete the pvlog.txt file, i can start it and view pics again

2. does not support .jpeg!! if i delete the "e" and change the extension to .jpg it works fine!!

3. as previously mentioned even when chosing the fullscreen option, still has the lower and upper menu bars!

4. cannot go back after chosing a folder; i have to quit and restart the software

5. would be nice if it had larger and full folder names with one click openning, instead of double tapping on the folder

small things, but great app

thanks

Fit to screen & Rotate function

I am not sure what the Full Screen function is suppose to do. I don't notice any diffence on my device when I select it. Maybe it is not working. Is it suppose to just remove the menu bars and leave a background or is it to fit the image to screen?

--If it is not the later, would really like to see an image Fit to Screen option auto recoginizing Lanscape or normal mode.

--Pictures on the 8125 can be portrait or landscape depending on the posision of the camera when taken. Could you give it a rotate option and make it auto save it for that picture so the next time it is viewed rotation doesn't need to be done again?

--Really like the option of having a small angled previous viewed (as suggested my MarcusMaximus) to the left and a small angled preview pic to the right. Like flipping CD's in a jukebox. Don't know how this would fit my first request of Fit to Screen. Maybe an option to have it either way? Would probably only use it in landscape mode though and would eliminate the need for back ground color. Tried using zoom for this but starts to cut images off as you zoom in.

Can the program be set to start in landscape mode everytime?

--2nd the Previous suggestion of having the directory showing small thumbnail images of pics is a good one.

Great program so fare!!! Even for an early in development app it is really awesome!!!!

Thanks,

GC

can you update first post and thread name with changes?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] amanakbar:
watch video here : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KREH7frOLa0

marcus, maybe you can get some idea from here for your picture viewer... there is no indication that this will be available for htc touch... and i like your gesture better

please keep on in updating us with your progress... thank you marcus
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kasperke:
strange...when i install the previous version in the same dir as the new version..and rename the .exe to 2 words ...the program starts but nothing works in the menu. And after a few pictures it stops working.

Any updates yet:)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ldm85:

please
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] salahnajm:
Has anyone tried picsel browser?! v. cool software with basically the same idea of zooming/paning... can open picture files, documents and even internet; i liked it more than opera, and was much faster on my device... the only thing is that it doesn't flip through pictures (at least i wasn't able to...) probably this software can help develop this software?

by the way, i'm still waiting anxiously for an update... :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] msoeherman:
Has anyone heard from Marcus? I think he is going to surprise everyone with the next update ... How about it Marcus?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
Hey every1... actually... been hanging out with my girlfriend and been in and out of town for the last couple weeks so that's why there's been no updates. I'm back now so they should start comin again really soon. Sorry every1 for not having the huge update you all were looking forward to. Keep checking back and thanks for your support
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Seed123:
Thats cool. Life > everything ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
Yeesh... the latest cab will always be on the first post. so if any1 wants the latest release then look there. sorry for the confusion

Great app

Hi great app, it was the missing one !

I've got an error, I selected a bad folder with no photos inside it and it brings me an error.

The issue is that when I restart the app i've got always the same error.

How can i change the default folder?

thanks!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
To change the default folder, simply change the folder you're looking at, the program remembers what folder you were last looking at. Go to menu->change directory and choose a folder that has pictures in it :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] msoeherman:
Marcus,

This doesn't work for me, no pictures are shown on the small box.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] msoeherman:

SOLVED : i deleted the pvlog.txt file and reinstalled it and now it works.

it's getting better and better..faster loading..nice background.

- full screen option isn.t working.

-the grey htc background image isn't stretched when you go to landscape (white border on the right of the screen).

- when you pan around a picture in zoom mode..the next picture is also in zoom mode and panned.

still love to see:

- pictures following from left to right. when you go to the next pictures it commes from the left and vice versa.

- when zooming or panning..the next image back in normal view (not zommed or panned)

- Pictures always in Fit To Screen mode.

Maybe a better way is when you start the program it is always in fullscreen and pictures ar fit to screen and when you double tap it goes to normal mode (for panning and zooming)so you could see the black bars with the options.

- And offcourse a thumbnailpage:-)

Marcus..keep up this work..i luv it.:)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
msoeherman: there needs to be pictures in the actual directory you choose. If they're in the subfolders, it won't find them. In mine the pics are stored at: Storage Card/DCIM/100Media

kasperke: thumbnail page is under menu->choose picture

also, I'll get on fullscreen not working... it's weird... I totally haven't changed that part... don't know why it broke.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] salahnajm:
Love the software!! still slightly unstable, but once u make sure there's a subfolder in the image folder, enough memmory and delete the pvlog file, it works much better; still crashes on occasions :(...

v1.4 cannot open selected folder!! (accept button not appearing!)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
Oops... salahnajm: good call. I did accidentally brake it. The first post now has a fixed version. Thanks for the heads up
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kasperke:
hi Marcus

the fullscreen option is working now..great job, only the background picture isn't covered in landscape mode version 1.4

i still get a problem with the zooming..when i zoom to much..the picture somethimes freezes (only the option menu en quit works) or gives an error.

in fullscreen mode it's freezing faster then in normal mode.

can you make it when you zoom in a picture and you want to go to the next picture..it is not zoomed in. Now the next picture is also zoomed in.

when you select a picture in choose picture menu..i always have to toggle the fullscreen in the menu ..to start the picture gesture otherwise the chosen picture stays still.

maybe a slideshow feature? looks nice when the pictures flies automatically over the screen:D

a nice and more proffesional icon to start the program:)

keep up this great work.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] msoeherman:
Marcus: I have some pictures in the actual directory and some in Card/DCIM/100Media. I moved several to the actual directory. Does the picture have to be a certain megapixel size?
