ShowImage
can be opened in at least four ways, by clicking on the application
icon, on the image file's icon, or by dragging the image on to the
application icon in the Deskbar or in the Tracker window.
As in all operating system you can double-click on files and the
files will be opened in their default applications. So when you
double-click on an image file's icon, Zeta will take a closer look
on what format the image is stored in, then open it in the appropriate
viewer.
ShowImage is capable of showing the following image formats: BMP,
TIFF and TGA. GIF and JPEG is by default shown in NetPositive.
ShowImage takes advantage of Zeta's Translators library, so the
application can show and save to any image format located in this
library.
An example on how this application has been used for this manual
There are two ways to take a screenshot in Zeta. Press the key Print
Screen or the key combination Alt+Shift+3. The
screenshots are automatically saved in the folder /boot/home,
in the fileformat Targa (TGA). The screenshots have been opened
by double-clicking them or by dragging them onto the ShowImage application.
I have then used ShowImage to clipp a section of the screenshot,
by dragging the chosen section to the Desktop.
The section is automatically saved as an file, so my last step was
to open the new file and save it to the image format PNG with a
suitable name.
