Synopsis

fiv [OPTION]…​ [PATH | URI]…​

fiv is a general-purpose image browser and viewer: pass it a directory path or URI to open it for browsing, or pass an image to open it for viewing. In case that multiple arguments are passed, theyll be opened as a virtual directory containing all of them.

For more information concerning usage, press F1 in the application to open the User Guide.

Options

--invalidate-cache

Invalidate the wide thumbnail cache, removing thumbnails for files that can no longer be found.

--list-supported-media-types

Output supported media types and exit. This is used by a script to update the list of MIME types within fiv's desktop file when the list of GdkPixbuf loaders changes.

--browse

When an image is passed, start in browsing mode, and preselect that image in its containing directory. This is used by fiv's inode/directory handler to implement the "Open Containing Folder" feature of certain applications.

--thumbnail=SIZE

Generate thumbnails for the first argument, in all sizes not exceeding SIZE, and present the largest of them on the standard output in an application-specific bitmap format. Available sizes follow directory names in the Thumbnail Managing Standard.

--extract-thumbnail

Present any embedded thumbnail of the first argument on the standard output in an application-specific bitmap format. When both --thumbnail and --extract-thumbnail are passed, this option takes precedence, exiting early if successful. This is used to enhance responsivity of thumbnail procurement.

-V, --version

Output version information and exit.

--help-all

Show the full list of options, including those provided by GTK+.
