Executable Release v1.06

• New:

  • Metadata can now be copied between PNG and WEBP images.
    • Copying metadata from PNG-to-WEBP and WEBP-to-PNG requires ExifTool.exe to be in the same folder as batch_resize_images.exe
    • ExifTool (2003-2024) is created by Phil Harvey and can be downloaded from https://exiftool.org/

• Other changes:

  • Clicking on the directory entry when it's displaying the default ... will now clear the entry.
  • Minor UI tweaks.

Executable Release v1.05

v1.05 changes:

• New:
  • Save PNG Info:
    • PNG chunk info is now copied to the resized output if the output is also PNG. Only copies PNG textual data like: tEXt, zTXt, iTXt.
    • If converting from PNG to another type, then a text file will be created containing the PNG info.

• Fixed:
  • Fixed error where the Resize! button would become disabled after clicking it without a directory selected.
  • Fixed issues where selecting Resize! without a valid width/height wouldn't return early.
  • Fixed some typos.

• Other changes:
  • Dropped PyPNG and instead now use PngInfo from Pillow.

Executable Release v1.04

v1.04 changes:

This is the first proper full release. Previously released as a helper script to img-txt_viewer, but it grew into its own app.

• New:
  • New option: "Save PNG Info`. Checking this option will automatically save any PNG chunk info to a separate text file in the output path.
    • As the name implies, only PNG images are supported.
  • New option: Quality Slider. This allows you to set the output quality of JPG and WEBP images.

• Fixed:
  • Fixed issue where the "Resize!" button would stay disabled.
