Dark Table

Sopa Dark Table - version 1.0

For all photographers members and PTE users, I hope this tool will be

of some use in arranging your images before making your show.

This version works with up to 200 bmp or jpg images.

You can use the free "DivideFolder" utility to divide a big folder

with many images to small folders. The more images to be uploaded

the slower the program will work. Try to use folder containing

only the images you need.

How to move images:

Example: If you want to move image 9 to be before image 6

click on image 9 and then on image 6.

Buttons:

Browse/Open:

There are two buttons to browse and select a folder. One will search

for all images including in the sub-folders, and the other without

sub-folders. You will be asked to choose a title for your page.

The program will display up to 200 images as thumbs of 100x75 pixels.

A list of all files and their path, in the order you arranged them,

will be saved as "List.txt" in the program folder. This "List.txt"

file is overwritten each time you make a change but you can save it

as a TXT file under another name during your work (see "View" button).

Files are sorted by names. The thumbs of all images will be displayed

in same order in program window. Files are limited to 200.

View:

This will open "List.txt" file and Send its content to Clipboard.

Since this file is overwritten each time a change is made, you can use

the clipboard to past the List to a new text file.

Open HTML:

Will open HTML page which will include up to 200 Thumbs of images

found in your selected folders as you arranged them.

Batch Rename:

There are two ways to rename your files. The first one will overwrite

your original files, and rename all files with name you choose as

prefix, adding ascending numbers as suffix. The second way will create

a second copy of your files, using their original names and adding the

word "_Copy" at the end. Since the program can rename even "read only"

files, you can use it to rename files copied from a CD, which are

"read only".

More features:

When you reopen the program your last working project will be opened

and images will be auto displayed as thumbs in last defined order.
