after one year of development, nomacs has become something that we call stable. so we released nomacs 0.4.0 Release Candidate today. For now it’s just windows – nomacs will be released in the next few days for all Operating Systems supported.
new features include:
- Caching images – results in very short loading time
- Thumb run-through – fast folder preview
- Save widget state – widgets remember if they were displayed the last time
- Additional supported formats – *.mrw (Minolta Raw) and *.rw2 (Panasonic Raw)
- Improved RAW display – colors are now more intensive
- Go To – you can jump to whatever file you like using the new Go To dialog (CTRL+G)
- Unattended installation parameters – improves batch installation for Windows
and as usual we have fixed some bugs:
- RAW images for Linux – nomacs did not load raw images with libraw > 0.14.0
- Save dialog – is now a native OS dialog -> speed up
- *.bmp save – error message removed
- Transparency & edit – handling of transparent images (e.g. crop) is corrected
- … and a bunch of small fixes
Please note that the cacher is deactivated by default. We did so to save RAM for those who use nomacs in order to display every-day-images. Give it a try by changing the preferences: Settings > Resources > Cache Settings
