i use windows 10
did you use precompiled version?
i use tacent v1.0.27

if i open image with double click, it just blank
if i try drag and drop image, tacent opens next image in folder

Note, the 2 screens above are without making any changes/fixes... so might need some more information. It is worth noting that in windows I do have the following option set (as I needed utf-8 to show u properly in console output):

I'll try the release of 1.0.27. I don't have windows 10 tho.

Works locally with the released 1.0.27. Also tried double-clicking and drag-and-drop without issue. I'll need to try (but can't right now) with the checkbox above un-checked. glfw expects the title in utf-8 encoding which is what is being passed.

after enabling "beta" option, it started to work as expected

Yeah. Hopefully you're happy with this for now (as a bonus, you can now see more unicode characters in the command prompt etc). In truth you should not really need to have this option checked if the viewer and its base libraries were calling the UNICODE and _UNICODE versions (UTF16 on windows) OS calls everywhere... It's a bit of work to fix, but I'll leave this issue open for now. Thanks for the report.

As of 03e7cb4 the Beta flag is no longer necessary.

• file name in title is showing correctly

• drag and drop image to tacentview is working

• double click on file with Cyrillic symbols is still not working (I'm not using "Beta" flag). It opens next file in folder. Accidentally if there is only one file in folder, then it opens file that I wanted

using tacentview_1.0.43.zip

Hi kutu. Thanks for the report. I'll re-open this. Looks like it's 'nearly' all working ;)

Fixed in 6006aa0
'Beta' checkbox no longer necessary to have the viewer open files with cyrillic characters by double-clicking.
