Version 9.0.11 of ImageGlass has been released. ImageGlass is a small, fast and simple open source program for viewing images. It can rotate and convert images to other format without losing quality, but for other operations it depends on external software. In version 9.0, which was nicknamed Moon, support for .NET 8 and devices equipped with an Arm processor was added. There are also significant performance improvements and the appearance has been given a modern look. The changelog for this release can be found below.
