Enhanced Image Viewer

Enhances the browser's default image viewer

Enhanced Image Viewer

Enhanced Image Viewer upgrades your browser's default image viewer to provide a richer and more flexible image viewing experience. It offers multiple configurable scaling modes that you can cycle through with a simple click, plus easy image rotation in 90° steps using keyboard shortcuts (l and r).

Additional features include the option to remember your preferred scaling mode and rotation for consistent viewing across images, customizable background colors, and a toggleable info display that shows image details along with the current scaling mode and rotation. It supports default browser zoom shortcuts as well, ensuring a seamless and enhanced image preview directly within your browser.

User reviews

Users appreciate the Enhanced Image Viewer for its simplicity, image information display, rotation capability, and scaling modes. It effectively helps to fit images to the browser window and offers a positive overall experience. However, multiple reviews note the absence of viewing images in the same tab, lack of mouse scroll zoom, no default zoom setting to auto-fit images, an initial screen flicker issue, and missing options to save or convert images. Implementing these features could enhance user satisfaction further.
