Hi,

ViewPlus and Thumbs 2.1 (DLLs) copyright 2005 Rastaman
Viewer DSU and Thumbs DSU v1.0
-----------------------------------------

VDS: Help, demo, DSU (thumbs and viewer) by
Thumbs.dll and Viewerplus.dll by RastaMan (Sorry dont know his real name)
Thanks:
to Tommy for the class command
to DragonSpere who help figure out why the VDS app was crashing on exit
to all who tested it and reported the bugs!

Status : Freeware

** Demos : democombo.dsp shows usage of both DLLS.

ViewPlus is a DLL (viewer.dsu) which displays an image of multiple formats. ViewPlus also allows users to ZOOM in or out on the image, and also features a wallpaper command to set the current image as the users desktop wallpaper. Additional features are 30 image transitions and save image option! See the ViewPlus Commands.txt file for a listing of VDS commands supported.

Supported Image Formats:
tif,jpg,pcx,bmp,ico,cur,png,wmf,emf,tga,pxm,gif,tif

::::::::::::::::

Thumbs is a DLL/DSU which displays thumbnails of a given directory. Using the VDS HotKey command in a script (example in the demo), will tell ViewPlus to load the image selected in ThumbsPlus. See Thumbs Commands.txt for listing of supported VDS commands.

Supported Image Formats:
tif,jpg,pcx,bmp,ico,cur,png,wmf,emf,tga,pxm,gif,tif

::::::::::::::::

Each DLL/DSU works fine on its own. One DLL/DSU does not require the other to work properly.

::::::::::::::::

Uses: Photo/Image CD's, Wallpaper Changer Program, and many other possible projects.

::::::::::::::::

This is NOT the final release, still work to be done on the help file and some tweaks in both DSU.

Please report any issues good or bad.. Smile

Get it from:
http://www.extremesenses.com/thumbs/thumbsviewer.zip

ZIP file includes:
Source code of demo
Compiled demo
Both thumbs.dsu and viewer.dsu
Both thumbs.dll and viewplus.dll
Sample pics

Thank you.

Hi Marty

I really like the look of the dll's and dsu's, however

when i open the demo file, run it and close the application in VDS IDE 5.02.

Vds crashes.

Windows Xp Home

Rubes... I completly forgot to mention this KNOWN issue Embarassed

If you run your script inside the IDE with will always crash VDS.. but not compiled..

Sorry its something in the DLL and I cant do anything about that.
