MyView - Modern Image Viewer

MyView is a sleek, fast, and modern image viewer built for Linux using Qt6. It is designed to be unobtrusive, highly responsive, and feature-rich without the clutter.

Features

• Modern UX: Dark theme, floating HUD controls, and smooth animations.
• Smart Zoom: Double-click to toggle between "Fit to Screen" and "Actual Size" (1:1).
• Navigation: Intuitive arrow key navigation and mouse wheel support.
• Formats: Supports all major formats (JPG, PNG, WEBP, GIF, SVG, BMP, TIFF).
• Transparency: Checkerboard background for transparent images.
• Workflow:
  • Tabbed Interface: Open multiple images in tabs (Ctrl+N, Ctrl+T).
  • Drag & Drop: Drag images directly into the window.
  • Singleton: Smartly handles duplicates—focuses existing tabs instead of opening new ones.
