The gdk-pixbuf plugin does not work here, for whatever reason. Moreover, close integration exposes higher bit depths, metadata, and auxiliary images. The library is awful and copylefted, but it's the only reasonable thing that works.

======
|
|
|
|
'fastiv' is a fast image viewer, supporting BMP, PNG, GIF, JPEG, and optionally
|
|
raw photos, HEIC, AVIF, SVG, X11 cursors and TIFF, or whatever gdk-pixbuf loads.
|
|
|
|
It still has some road to go, but it's already become quite usable,
|
|
and it has received basic polishing.
|
|
|
|
Non-goals
|
|
---------
|
|
- fancy UI--the focus is on speed of use first, colour accuracy second
|
|
- editing--that's what _editors_ are for, be it GIMP or Rawtherapee;
|
|
nothing beyond the most basic of adjustments is desired
|
|
- memory efficiency, though preloading can cause some pressure
|
|
- portability to non-UNIXy systems
|
|
|
|
Packages
|
|
--------
|
|
Regular releases are sporadic. git master should be stable enough. You can get
|
|
a package with the latest development version from Archlinux's AUR.
|
|
|
|
Building and Running
|
|
--------------------
|
|
Build dependencies: Meson, pkg-config +
|
|
Runtime dependencies: gtk+-3.0, glib>=2.64, pixman-1, shared-mime-info,
|
|
spng>=0.7.0, libturbojpeg +
|
|
Optional dependencies: LibRaw, librsvg-2.0, xcursor, libheif, libtiff,
|
|
gdk-pixbuf-2.0
|
|
|
|
$ git clone --recursive https://git.janouch.name/p/fastiv.git
|
|
$ meson builddir
|
|
$ cd builddir
|
|
$ meson compile
|
|
|
|
To install the application, you can do:
|
|
|
|
# meson install
|
|
|
|
Configuration
|
|
-------------
|
|
The standard means to adjust the looks of the program is through GTK+ 3 CSS.
|
|
As an example, to tightly pack browser items, put the following in your
|
|
_~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css_:
|
|
|
|
fastiv-browser { -FastivBrowser-spacing: 0; padding: 0; border: 0; margin: 0; }
|
|
|
|
The GTK+ inspector will be very helpful, should you want to experiment.
