Inline Images¶
Experimental support for Inline images was added in this 64 bit build and this 32 bit build, this may or may not become a feature depending on feedback/issues discovered.
Support for setting custom domains may be added later.
Testing¶
When enabled, all links ending with a image file extension will be downloaded, so don't enable if you are on channels/networks you don't trust.
I don't recommend testing this in your daily driver, instead download the AdiIRC.exe to a folder somewhere and run it from there.
It can be useful to keep the Rawlog open to see any errors when loading images.
Enabling Inline Images support¶
All options is currently done through the /setoption command.
To enable, type:
/setoption InlineImages UseInlineImage True
To disable, type:
/setoption InlineImages UseInlineImage False
When the support is disabled, all inline images is removed from all text buffers.
Enabling animate gifs¶
To enable, type:
/setoption InlineImages AnimateInlineImages True
To disable, type:
/setoption InlineImages AnimateInlineImages False
When the support is disabled, all gifs will stop animating and show the first frame as a static image.
Changing the maximum image size in bytes¶
By default only images smaller than 2 megabytes is downloaded, this can be changed by typing:
/setoption InlineImages InlineImagesMaxBytes N
Where N is the new maximum number of bytes to allow.
Changing the image sizes¶
By default all images which cannot fit in 20 lines using the current font is downsized, the number of lines can be changed by typing:
/setoption InlineImages InlineImagesMaxLines N
Where N is the new maximum number of lines before the image is resized.
The images keeps their aspect ration when resized, resizing by width is not supported, so a very wide image could be cut off.
Cache¶
All downloaded images are saved to $scriptdir\Cache\Preview, the folder is cleared automatically when AdiIRC is closed.
Some option for handling cache may be added in the future.
Feedback¶
Would like to hear how slow/fast loading and painting the images is, and whether cpu usage is acceptable.
Since Taskbar memory usage is not accurate at all for .NET programs, the output from the /imagecache command could be useful to determine memory usage.
The /imagecache command also prints the number of images in the cache, it would be useful to know whether it shrinks properly when a window buffer is cleared or the image line is removed in other ways.
