I did not recall that I need unzip it.  It was a msi type file, I just double click and it will install in your PC then will install the necessary stuff to your device through AS. It is not meant ot install directly on the device. :think:

It didnt appear to install anything on my device. If I go to properties it says Type of file-Windows installer package and Opens with-Windows installer. The file is NETCFsetup.
Some of you have a vast knowledge of computers, I'm only half vast.

Here are what I saw:

1) Download the NETCFSetup.msi
2) Double click it, after a routine (license stuff) it installed a folder named "Microsoft .NET Compact Framework 1.0 SP3" in my Program files on the PC.
3) The setup program will try to find a device connected via AS.  So it is better you put device your device on the cradle before you run it.

Initially I saved it to my PC and then tried to open it (no unzip I was mistaken on that) Now I'm downloading it again , but used run instead of save. I have dialup so it takes forever. I'll keep you posted.

It worked! For some reason it wouldnt from the saved file, but now I see it all.
Memory useage
When I use Resco FE it says 0 bytes, but soft reseting the device and going to -settings-system-memory-it looks as though I lost about 1MB
Thanks for the fix UK!

Great. Thanks for let me know the size of the installed file.

Uk_skinner,

I've received your latest version of ImageViewer, and tested it in the meantime. At first it only opened the config.imv. But then, suddenly, it opened all my .imv files... I realy don't know why...

All works fine now. I can go from picture to picture, without ending the progamm between the pictures. And all pictures are automatic opened in the 'fit to screen' mode.

Uk_skinner, I can tell you: I'm very happy with this new feature! It's a real improvement in my own skin! Thanks for all your efforts to reach this point!

At least I have one question: in the bottum bar I see a new button-picture ('at work' ???).  What is this button doing?!?

Thanks again!

Great, it works.
The new button is just an experiment, not fully function yet.  Probably will be an "about" button.  I would like to put some version information.  But this could be other function. :idea:  :?:

UK,

The new ImageViewer works like a charm !!  :approve:

I have the new button, but like you said, no function yet !!

:idea:   Is it possible that this button, (or an additional one), can open the "imv" file for quick editing ??  That would be great !!  And Handy !!  :D

:idea:   Also, we could make the other buttons "more graphical"..  If you tell me the button image size, I'll see what I can come up with !!   :wink:

Since you voulnteer yourself, if you can get me both 16x16 and 32x32, then I can put them in.

I am not sure.  The .imv file has associated to ImageViewer.  I need to find a way to open it in notepad.

I am in the process to improve the ImageViewer.  Here is one possible feature that ZapMe1 requested:  Edit IMV file within ImageViewer.

Any idea or suggestion.  Another possible new feature I will try to include is to let you load image at the center you wish.  At this moment, the image was loaded start at left-upper corner (no window-fit).  I think it will be nice if you can specify the center you wish to see when image is loaded.

Edit: Please see below for latest screenshot.

Uk_skinner,

Why not! Everybody can choose his own wishes in that case. Would be a good feature!

Thanks to ZapMe1.  We have new icon buttons for ImageViewer.  Two new buttons were added, IMV edit and About.

1)  In Edit page, user can edit the imv file.  New feature including to include "window fit", "center position" and "zoom".  In other words, you can specify these parameters in your imv file and the image will be loaded as you specify.

2) The about page just for me to keep tracking the version of ImageViewer.

I will try to make the ImageViewer VGA version.  At this moment the icon does not look sharp.
