A long overdue update that fixes critical bugs when comparing more than two images at once (yes, it's actually viable to compare 3, 5, or 10 images at once now!) and adds a new image locking feature.

Image locking carries over images between comparison resets, which makes it helpful when you have a "baseline" image you want to keep across multiple comparisons. Refreshing with the utility bar button or Ctrl + R will not remove locked images.

Images can be locked or unlocked using the 🔒 icon at the bottom left. Alternatively, you can press L to toggle locking. Upon locking, you should see a notification (which is also a new feature!).

You can also bulk toggle the locking / unlocking of images by using the bulk lock icon. Alternatively, you can press Ctrl + L

You can remove all locked and unlocked images in one go with the new hard reset feature by simply pressing Ctrl + Shift + R.

Changelog

• [ADDED] The ability to lock images from being removed during a comparison reset. This also means a "hard reset" feature which totally resets the comparison, including locked images. And of course, accompanying UI buttons and keyboard shortcuts have been added.
• [ADDED] Notification messages!
• [FIXED] Loading more than two images at once will no longer create multiplicative entries in the lists at the top of the screen. It used to be if you loaded 5 images, it would generate 25 entries!
• [FIXED] Using mouse to scroll through images will no longer go through two images at a time.
• [FIXED] A crash caused by loading images, unloading them, then scrolling.
• [CHANGED] The app now starts in slide comparison mode.

A quick update which changes how image loading works. Images will now be loaded directly from their original directories, rather than transferred into a temporary directory. This fixes an issue where images with the same filename could not be loaded.

Initial 1.0 release. Please note that on the first launch of the program, it may take a few seconds to initialize.

Known issues:

• Top image selection menus may be repositioned or scaled when zooming. This is a Godot 4 bug. I'll update when Godot 4 gets a fix.
