Short: Updated auto-thumbnailer Author: Curt Esser Uploader: camge amigaonline net Type: gfx/ifx Requires: ImageFX v2.00 or better Architecture: m68k-amigaos ReqTools Uploaded to Aminet Jan 23 2000 This program is FREEWARE OK, what the heck is it? It's a replacement for the "CreateNails.ifx" ARexx script that comes with ImageFX So, what does it do? Features with a * are not available in the original script * It can start ImageFX for you automatically * It allows you to set default Load and Save paths It will create thumbnails for an entire directory It can create "remote" thumbnails on your HD for non-writeable volumes (like CD's) * It also reads ALL subdirectories from any selected starting point (meaning you can even create thumbnails for an entire CD at one time) (option) it can be set to skip pictures that already have a thumbnail in the target directory so you can use it to update directories on your HD after adding pictures to them, or resume thumbnailing a volume later if you quit the program in the middle. * (option) it can create new directories for your "remote" thumbnails. So, if you are scanning a whole CD, it won't dump hundreds (maybe thousands) of thumbnails in the same directory * (option) it can examine every file found to make sure it is really an image file before attempting to load it into ImageFX so you can scan, for example, an entire AF CD, and it will find and create thumbnails for every picture found. You can set it to check for specified file extensions, examine the files internally, or both * It corrects a bug found in the Thumbnail loader, the Thumbnail browser, and the NailFile.datatype which can cause a lock-up or crash with some "remote" thumbnails. The bug is fixed by altering the header in the nailfile - your existing programs are NOT messed with... * BONUS for NewIcon users - I've icluded a set of NewIcons for ImageFX in the archive Full source available on request.
