Set as default image viewer

Open ashkanRmk opened this issue 7 years ago • 4 comments

How can I set it as my default image viewer in linux? It doesn't appear in application list to open images with it.

In windows 10 setting it as default works by right-clicking on the image file, Open with > Choose another app > More apps >Look for another app in PC. However, i set the app as the default app for images but when i open an image it actually opens the app without adding the picture to it. I have to drag and drop the picture to the app in order to see it. Would be nice to work straight away when i double click on a picture.

Otherwise, the app is great! lightweight and minimal for a fresh modern look. Good job
