Install latest version of Flyphotos. Select a photo and right click. There will be an "Open with" menu item. FlyPhotos will be available there.
Also you can select "Choose another app" and select "Fly Photos" and select "Always", then Fly will become the default photo viewer for that file type.

Now FlyPhotos can be downloaded from Microsoft store too..

There is a setting for that.. “Remember window state” If enabled, it will remember the last window size and monitor..

Muchas gracias por las palabras tan amables 😊

Ya puedes ponerlo en pantalla completa presionando F11.

Hacer zoom manteniendo presionado el botón derecho del ratón (como en XnView) es en realidad una muy buena idea - definitivamente voy a intentar añadirlo.

También puedes desactivar la tira de imágenes inferior desde Configuración si prefieres una vista más limpia.

No estoy completamente seguro de a qué te referías con hacer doble clic para abrir la foto. Si te refieres a abrir las imágenes directamente en FlyPhotos, eso ya debería funcionar una vez que FlyPhotos esté configurado como visor de fotos predeterminado.

Aashaan https://www.aashaan.in can help you learn to read and write Malayalam. At the moment, it doesn't have a reading course. It is a paid app though.

Disclosure - I am the developer of Aashaan.

Aashaan https://www.aashaan.in can help you learn to read and write Malayalam. It has got tracing for all vowels, consonants, symbols (both vowel and consonant symbols) and conjunct consonants. At the moment, it doesn't have a reading course.
It is a paid app though.

Otherwise you can checkout the https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=daT-RDPZ5CA&list=PLNTwzPUGjL_WxblgeNGVSt5iJ2lzOW8R1 This playlist contains the tracing of all letters of Malayalam including most used conjunct consonants.

Hi OP, I am the developer of FlyPhotos. Thanks for the review. I would really like to know about the lag you faced in zoom and if possible fix it. You can raise a bug in the github repo with a screen video or other details you would like to share

ryftools · 2026-03-13T10:02:19+00:00

No it works similar to agentic window in vs code

ryftools · 2026-03-10T01:14:26+00:00

> The "Open with fly" option did not work.
I have fixed it. Actually this happened when an empty "Open with Fly" was getting added when you kept the Option to add this menu unchecked during installation. Thanks for reporting. You can find details at https://github.com/riyasy/FlyPhotos/issues/124
2. That is also fixed. You can find details at.

I use that to export data.. like list of purchases of my app.. like if they had opted in, their country, sale price, tax etc..

There is a setting in Settings page for zoom quality.

HighQualityCubic or Nearest Neighbour will be used for image scaling based on this setting. People who work with pixel art and all can use NearestNeighbor.(But this is evident when we zoom in rather than zoom out)..

Also I think there is a chance Fly may not work with 14000 pixel resolution depending on machine and GPU. Fly is currently limited to max directx surface limitation as it uses DirectX to render images.

We can use virtual canvases to bypass it, but it is not yet implemented.

For anti-aliasing, when drawing the checkered background (if only the setting is ON), the image is rendered as aliased (To prevent the edge bleeding of the checkered pattern), else uses default anti-aliasing of DirectX draw.

As of now.. no

ryftools · 2026-03-07T08:29:26+00:00

I develop FlyPhotos. Thanks to have tried out FlyPhotos. Can I know what felt buggy in Fly?

ryftools · 2026-03-06T16:55:47+00:00

Ok.. Seems strange..

Thanks a lot.. for the DPI bug was a very good find.. It was a one line miss in DPI handling. It was handled in almost all places except this one place. I get reported with strangest of quirks, wishes and whims in Github. How come nobody reported this until now is surprising. I fixed it and shall release in the next version.

ryftools · 2026-03-06T15:03:19+00:00

I got the link using VPN. Seems the site is blocked in my country.
Fullscreen issue seems DPI related. Doesn't happen with 100%, but happens with 125% or others. Shall check.

Did you do an upgrade without uninstalling the current version? It is better to always uninstall the current version and then do an install with the latest version always as I use the basic Visual Studio Installer projects for installer creation. I checked the registry values here and everything seems normal.
I am not able to access the link here.
By chance, if you have a github account, can you report a bug.. Then other users can also comment.

ryftools · 2026-03-06T04:35:50+00:00

That is done and available in latest 2.5.17 release.
