There are two ways to associate image formats with Handy Viewer.
The first one: when you install Handy Viewer, on the final page of installation Wizard you will see the option "Associate image formats with Handy Viewer". It is enabled by default. So please keep it enabled, and the installer will associate file extensions automatically.
The second way. Run Handy Viewer, and select in the main menu: File -> Set File Associations... Confirm the operation in the dialog box.
By default Handy Viewer uses Simple View. This means that the image takes up the entire window except the toolbar. To switch to the Tree View mode, click at the button "Tree View" on toolbar. Or select in the main menu: View -> Tree View.
Yes, you can. You have to enable the Tabs View. After that you can click "Open..." and choose some other image. It will be displayed on new tab.
To switch to the Tabs View mode, click at the button "Tabs View" on toolbar. Or select in the main menu: View -> Tabs View.
