Short: Displays IFF-ILBM pictures, supports color cycling Author: Olaf 'Olsen' Barthel Uploader: AmigaOne TheWorld net (Alex Carmona) Type: gfx/show Version: 1.12 Architecture: m68k-amigaos >= 3.0.0; ppc-amigaos >= 4.0.0 This is (yet another?) viewer program for picture files. But this one is special, for a number of reasons: * It shows only IFF-ILBM format picture files. And it can handle all popular variants and formats. * Unlike many other IFF-ILBM viewer programs, this one was specifically written for graphics cards, using the CyberGraphX API (which is also supported by the Picasso96 software); it does not run on a plain Amiga. While this sounds like a disadvantage, it allows you to view HAM8 pictures on an ECS Amiga. * This program supports colour cycling. * Unlike other picture viewers, this program will try to display all pictures in the correct aspect ratio. On a graphics card, every pixel is square, yet there are IFF-ILBM pictures which require pixels that are twice as wide as they are tall (or twice as tall as they are wide). And of course, there are the control options this program offers and the source code is included, too. History ======= 1.12 (29.11.2005) - Fixed a data structure alignment issue when compiling on PowerPC that prevented loading GraphiCraft pictures. [Reported by Alex Carmona] 1.11 (26.11.2005) - Fixed the backwards cycling direction issue. As it turns out, the CRange structure contains a bitmask. [Reported by Alex Carmona] - Now the initial state of the cycle counters is used and preserved. 1.10 (15.08.2005) - Ported to OS4.
