Short: Picture viewer for OS 3.0+. V39.0
Author: cmh@augs.se (Magnus Holmgren)
Uploader: cmh@lls.se (Magnus Holmgren)
Type: gfx/show
Visage is an IFF/GIF/JPeg/Datatypes viewer for the AmigaOS version 3.0 or
higher. Main features include:
· Support for AA (AGA), ECS, RTG, PCHG and SHAM. ;)
· Can display "deep" pictures in all formats on ECS Amigas, rendered in
HAM or grayscale (datatypes work differently).
· Can scale "rendered" pictures to fit the screen.
· Extensive monitor support. Uses a BestModeID()-like function to find a
suitable mode (if needed).
· Any native Amiga screen mode can be specified with text! No numbers
needed. But you can use numbers, if you so wish. Or a requester.
· Simple promotion of pictures to any installed monitor. No hardcoded
command line options for this. There is even a monitor requester! ;)
· Several slideshow options, including a random mode, making PicView
ideal for use with screen blankers as an external module.
· It's free!
Installation notes:
It is recommended to use the Installer, since it takes care of some
not-so-obvious details, regarding the JPEG reader (in Visage) and the
manual.
Also, note that the automatic language selection doesn't work with all
versions of the Installer.
