Project roadmap

[adamws]

Things I want to add in upcoming versions:

• prevent crashes for large zooms
  • initially set some sane limit b169fe1 f869485
  • implement rendering parts of SVG - render only part visible in window so the texture does not exceeds memory capabilities
• add help menu overlay (for displaying navigation keys etc)
• support piping files (see https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9847479/use-pipe-of-commands-as-argument-for-diff)
• add status bar 2ff755f
  • display cursor coordinates
  • display split coordinate
• allow to adjust offset between images for comparison of specific zones
• add menu which lets to open files after executable launched
• add texture caching for performance improvement (check if really needed)
• make sure it works on windows and ios
• prepare pre-built binaries for supported platforms 1804ccc
• add different comparison modes
  • 2-up / onion skin (see https://docs.github.com/en/repositories/working-with-files/using-files/working-with-non-code-files)
  • highlight differences (similar to imagemagick https://imagemagick.org/Usage/compare/)
• add support for more image formats
• zoom with rectangle select and not only with scroll-wheel
• indicate if SVGs are identical f585cc3
• add more configuration options
  • white background instead of checkerboard
  • color of split separator
• implement smart separator color - sections of separator could change color to provide better contrast if blending with compared images

Thanks for building this. I have been look for something like this forever 🙏🏾

I have a feature request:
When I do git diff-svg HEAD~1 as written in the readme, it opens one comparison window after another. It would be an amazing if it would open one window with multiple tabs (or similar) so I can go back and forth.

Let me know what you think
