HEIC photo viewer
The HEIC image viewer window extends its support to a wide range of image and photo formats, not limited to the HEIC file format. Featuring a user-friendly interface, it allows you to effortlessly view your photos, inspect image details, and execute various image-specific functions.
Viewing Images
In the Image Viewer, you have the flexibility to refine your image viewing experience. Load any image or photo file, and then adjust the zoom level to suit your preference. Easily navigate to other images within the same folder, or, if the image is in a multi-page format like TIFF, effortlessly flip through each page.
Multi-Page Image Navigation
For multi-page images, use the page control buttons, represented by chevrons on the toolbar, to navigate through different pages.
Image Folder Navigation
Effortlessly navigate through multiple images in the same folder without the need to repeatedly go through the Open File routine. After opening an image, use the left or right arrow keys on your keyboard to view images in sequence. Alternatively, you can utilize the “<” or “>” buttons located in the lower-right corner of the Image Viewer window to flip through the images.
More features in the viewer
The viewer also provides three essential features:
- Zoom: zoom in or out to enlarge or shrink the display of an image
- Rotate: rotate clockwise or counter-clockwise to adjust the orientation of an image
