BENISJAMIN  Great program! I'm wondering if there is a way to flip on page at a time in the double page view? (ie. Pg1, Pg2 to Pg2, Pg3 instead of Pg1, Pg2 to Pg3, Pg4 if that makes sense)

FIBONACCIWORKS  Hi, love FFview but have had the same problems as the poster below. Try double clicking the voice recognition icon to close it, seemed to make all my troubles go away.

SHRIZZA  For some reason, almost half the time when I move forward or backward in a comic, I can see the little eye icon in the list view move up or down, but the comic display itself doesn't update. However, I can sort of force it to update by activating the magnifying cursor and moving over the page. Even then, sometimes only part of the page updates and I'm left with a lot of blank space. Resizing the window also seems to help with regard to forcing the update. This happens in all of "single", "western", and "manga" modes, and I've tested with many different types of comics from numerous sources. I'm running OS X 10.4.3 and FFView 0.9.6 on a 17" 1 GHz PowerBook G4.

SPIDER J.  this is my favourite comic viewer. is the best by far for macs. but alas, ffview 0.9 and this new update don't work on my G3 500 mhz imac dv. all i get is a black screen. do you need >8 mb video ram for the new rendering core?

still, keep up the good work. i just have to stick with the 0.8.5 version. this one works fine on my girlfriends emac.

ANONYMOUS  Thank you so much for making such an app! Better than Windows ACD See (not the crappy Mac version). Great image browser.

GEOFFREY  This is the closest I've found to that classic Windows viewer, ACDSee 3. There's still a few things I'd like to see:

- voice recognition disabled by default

- pre-rendering of next image (I *hate* having to wait a couple of seconds for the image to render after I've hit 'next')

- better image scaling, specifically the ability to grow the viewport dynamically on a per-image basis, and to only reduce an image resolution if it is larger than the maximum allowed window size.

- directory awareness: open one image in a directory of images, and then be able to navigate between the entire directory's contents

Here's hoping all of the above make it into v1.0 :)
