Eye of GNOME, the default image viewer software used in the acclaimed GNOME desktop environment, has recently been updated and distributed as part of the unstable GNOME 3.17.2 desktop environment.

According to the release notes, Eye of GNOME 3.17.1 brings various small improvements to its new graphical user interface (GUI) introduced as part of the GNOME 3.16 release, as well as various code improvements and bug fixes.

The new version also comes with a workaround that will support viewing of multi-page TIFF images, makes the Zoom toggle bottom zoom the current image in and out when pressed, and will now always display the image area outline/box.

Additionally, the software can now open TIFF images in a small window, and it adds a new view category that has been applied to the options popover menu. More details can be found in the changelog attached at the end of the article.

Support for the Occitan language has been added, and the Catalan manual translation has been updated. You can download Eye of GNOME 3.17.1 right now from Softpedia, but keep in mind that it's a pre-release version that contains unresolved issues.
