### Added - **Ctrl+F now searches inside a multi-page PDF in the Quick preview.** Type a word and the viewer jumps to the page it is on; Enter or F3 walks through the rest, and the bar counts them the way it already does for text files. Windows' PDF engine hands us pictures of pages and no text at all, so SageThumbs reads the words off the rendered pages itself, using the text recognition Windows already ships. Nothing new is downloaded or installed for it. Reading a long document takes a moment, so the bar says how far it has got: matches appear as their pages are read rather than after a silent wait, and a document longer than 200 pages keeps showing how many of its pages were actually searched instead of pretending it read all of them. If the machine has no text recognition available at all, it says so rather than reporting an empty result. Matches are shown by jumping to the page, not by highlighting the word on it. - **A page-thumbnail strip beside multi-page PDFs in the Quick preview.** Small pictures of every page run down the right-hand side, numbered, with the page you are reading outlined. Click one to jump straight to it. It appears only for documents with more than one page, hides itself on a narrow window where the room is better spent on the page itself, and can be turned off. Thumbnails are drawn as they come into view and kept small, so a long document does not pay for pages you never look at. ### Fixed - **The mouse wheel did nothing on a PDF in the Quick preview.** Continuous scrolling shipped in 2.3.1 with the keyboard working and the wheel not: rolling it over a PDF was silently ignored, even though the 2.3.1 notes said it scrolled. It scrolls now. Ctrl and the wheel magnifies, and Shift and the wheel slides a magnified page sideways. - **Zooming a PDF now redraws it sharply instead of blowing up the picture.** Magnifying used to stretch the page image it had already drawn, so text went soft exactly when you were zooming in to read it. Pages are now redrawn at the size you are viewing them at, so they stay crisp. - **Converting or resizing some camera RAW files gave you the camera's small preview instead of the photograph.** A Mamiya `.mef` came out **192x144** and a Phase One `.iiq` **304x220**, when the real pictures are 4016x5344 and 3658x2740. These formats hide the real photo where the usual decoder cannot see it without knowing the file's name, so SageThumbs was silently handing you the thumbnail. Convert and Resize now re-read those files at their full native resolution - the `.mef` really does come out 4016x5344. Thumbnails were always correct and are unchanged, pixel for pixel, and still just as fast. Formats that were already converting correctly keep their quick path, so nothing else got slower. ### Added - **Light or dark is now SageThumbs' own setting, on the Quick preview page.** Until now the preview and the Settings window followed Windows' app colour setting, so wanting a dark preview on an otherwise light desktop meant changing the whole system. There is now a "Theme" choice with Follow Windows, Light and Dark. Follow Windows is the default and is exactly what every earlier version did, so nothing changes unless you pick something. The Explorer right-click menu and the preview pane still follow Windows on purpose: those are drawn inside Explorer's own window, and disagreeing with the shell around them would look broken rather than themed. Suggested by a user. ### Changed - **Installing is quicker at the "Registering the modern context menu" step.** That step unregistered the existing Windows 11 menu package and registered it again from scratch every single time, which is two deployments where one will do, and it is the step people saw the installer appear to hang on. It now registers directly and only falls back to the remove and retry when that fails, and it skips re-importing the signing certificate when the same one is already trusted. Measured at **1,162 ms before and 552 ms after** on a warm machine. It is also safer: the old order tore down the working menu before anything else, so any later failure left you with no modern menu at all.Verified installer

Portable (no installer)
Extract and run. Nothing is installed, nothing goes in the registry, no admin needed.
Settings live in SageThumbs2K.ini next to the exe.
You get the app and the command line tool: settings, convert and resize, quick preview, screenshots, OCR, the colour picker and the folder tools.
Explorer thumbnails and the classic right-click menu work too. Turn them on with
st2k register, or the button in Settings under Advanced. That registers the handler
for your user account only: no installer, no administrator rights, nothing written
machine-wide. st2k register --off undoes it, and you should run that before moving
or deleting the folder, otherwise Windows is left pointing at a file that has gone.
Three things still need the installer, because Windows only accepts them registered for the whole machine: the Explorer preview pane, the Details pane columns, and the Windows 11 right-click menu (the compact one).
