I am happy to announce that Displayable Creator 2.0.0 is finally available!

After a long period of development, I am proud to release a faster, prettier and more powerful version of Displayable Creator.

The UI is now simplified,the app accepts multiple images at the same time, and it can process bigger images (tested up to 466 megapixels[1]).

Displayable Creator 2.0.0

The new main window of Displayable Creator

New features:

• A new UI: The main window is now a small window. The list of queued images and share-able Displayables is in its own separate window.
• A native Look: Now using the native look-n-feel under Windows and Mac OSX.
• Multi-drop: You can now drop multiple items on the app main window to create (or add) Displayables in a batch. Images will be queued for processing and Displayables will be directly added to the list of share-able items.
• Drag to pan: Finally implemented drag-to-pan when viewing individual Displayables.
• Update checker: The app will now periodically check if a new version is available.
• Integrated help: There is now an integrated help file, accessible by clicking on the ‘?’ button on the main window.
• Bigger tiles: Tile size selection is now possible. You can choose between 256 / 384 / 512 pixels sided tiles. The iOS devices needs less of them to fill the screen with bigger tiles, but they take slightly longer to load (the old 192 pixel tile size is no longer useful).
• Improved performance: The tiling engine was partially rewritten to better handle big images and to lay the groundwork for future features. It also ends up being slightly faster.

That’s it for this version. Please let me know if you find bugs, odd behaviors or miss a feature.

Next, I’ll be concentrating on finishing to update Displayator app!
