QuickView v6.40.1.1 Stable Release Notes
We are thrilled to announce the official release of QuickView v6.40.1.0 Stable!
This release is the culmination of extensive real-world testing and over two weeks of stability hardening. It introduces our brand-new GeekWidgets atomic UI library, an interactive cropping system and dedicated export panel, native WMF/EMF vector support and dynamic animated SVG playback, direct clipboard bitmap copying, instant loading in folders with 40,000+ files, full keyboard navigation in Settings, and a wide range of important bug fixes.
✨ What's New & How to Use
1. Next-Gen GeekWidgets: Modern Capsule Sliders & Effortless Controls (#144, #242, #243)
We completely re-architected QuickView's custom UI controls with our unified GeekWidgets atomic library, bringing an intuitive, pixel-perfect experience to the Settings overlay:
- Modern Pill Sliders: Replaces clunky legacy sliders with sleek, theme-tinted capsule sliders that feature subtle progress fills and high-contrast accents.
- Vector Steppers (< & >): Dedicated precision stepper buttons at each end allow for single-step adjustments with a single click.
- In-Place Direct Number Input: Click directly on the value text inside the slider to switch into an in-place text input box. Type your desired target value (e.g., 375, 80%, or 1.5) and press Enter—complete with strict boundary checks.
- Quick Reset Button (↺): A standalone reset button next to each slider lets you restore default values in one click.
- Drawing Tablet & Stylus Support: Fully optimized event handling for graphics tablets (e.g., Wacom Intuos), ensuring natural pen scrolling and zero interaction lockups.
2. Interactive Image Cropping & Modern "Save As" Export Panel (#201, #225)
Designed specifically for creators who need quick, zero-friction reframing and saving:
- Enter Crop Mode: Right-click anywhere on the image and select "Crop", or simply press the X hotkey.
- Fast Selection: While in crop mode, hold Ctrl and drag your left mouse button to instantly draw a crop bounding box (Ctrl-drag box selection). Corner and edge handles allow for smooth fine-tuning.
- Dedicated Export Panel: Press Ctrl + S or choose "Save As..." from the context menu to bring up the modern export dialog.
- Modern Formats & Smooth Quality Wheel: Export to JPEG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, or JXL with real-time file size estimation and mouse-wheel quality slider control.
3. Native WMF / EMF Vector Decoding & Animated SVG Support (#242, #238) …
