JPEG Saver 4.13.1
Published
This new version of JPEG Saver doesn't have a lot of new stuff in it, but does add a couple of things that people have asked me for lately.
The first is a new image selection mode available from the drop-down list on the main tab. The new mode is called “Alphanumeric” and sorts the list of images by filename, ignoring the folders in a similar way to the “Chronological” mode. The selection is also sorted by file date and time, so if you have multiple files called e.g. “15.jpg”, they will be displayed in order of age.
The second change is a new background mode. Actually, it's two new background modes, since I couldn't decide which worked better and decided to include both. They are called “Image average” and “Image edge average”, and both fill the background with a solid colour. The first one chooses a colour by averaging the colours of all the pixels in the foreground image, and the second looks at a 2-pixel border around the edge of the foreground image and averages the colours it finds there.
Finally, I've spent some time improving the GUI on the folders tab. People have been emailing me for years about the confusing “+Subdirs” and recursive options, so now I've removed the “+Subdirs” checkbox completely. Now new folders are always added in recursive mode and there are two new checkboxes for “Recursive” and “Disabled” to make it a bit easier to update the folder options after they have been added.
The new installer is available from the downloads page.
