- ImageViewer
- -----------
-
- This tool lets you view images accessable via any URL supported by your
- device.
- Which image file formats you can view depends on your device - only
- PNG-images MUST be supported by any device, and since current devices will
- most probably not support any other formats (like JPEG or GIF), you should
- convert the images you want to view to PNG.
-
- Usage:
- When you start the program, a (initially empty) list of images shows up.
- You can delete, alter and add new URLs of images to that list by using
- the menu commands.
- When you add or alter an URL, you may alter the describtion label of the URL
- and the URL itself.
- By selecting a URL from the list, the application will try to load the image
- from the specified URL and display it - You may then scroll across the image
- by using the cursor keys of your device.
-
- Notes for Siemens SL4xi users:
- - Image files placed in the "storage" subfolder of ImageViewer on the MMC
- card can be viewed by entering "file://<filename>" as the URL.
- Example: If there is an image called "example.png" in the "storage"
- subfolder, the correct URL of the picture would be:
- file://example.png
-
- - The screen size of the SL4xi phones is 101x80 pixels, 1bpp (Black/white)
- Colour/Greyscale pictures will automatically be dithered when viewed, but
- they look better if you dither them yourself.
- Do yourself a favor, dither them down to 1 bit per pixel before viewing
- them on the phone - it will shorten the image size and the time to load
- the picture as well.
-
- - The SL4xi phones currently (with firmware <= v54) have a bug (in fact, they
- have dozends :-( ) with the handling of large images - so if your images
- looks wrong, you'd better try to scale it down.
- Furthermore, I recognized that large image files (exceeding 15KB or so)
- will cause the application to crash (which seems occur as soon as you try
- to instantiate a simple 18KB sized byte[] vector, for the developers around
- you)
