# Features and screenshots
Switch between a dark and a light theme and toggle between hiding the UI.
_UI overview with bottom gallery._
Scroll Image
You can toggle the interface to show images `Side by side` and you can also turn scrolling on/off. Click the mousewheel for auto scroll.
Crop Image
Quickly crop image by pressing `C`. Hold `Shift` for square selection.
Image Info Window
Perform operations such as _renaming_, _file conversion_, _copying_, _compressing_, _resizing_, adding it to the _recycle bin_ and editing the _EXIF image rating_.
Changing size can be done by editing the `width` and/or `height` text-boxes. Use the `%` keyboard button to resize it by percentage.
If the GPS coordinates are saved on the image, you can click the Google or Bing buttons to open the respective maps at the GPS coordinates
Image Gallery
**Press `G` to open or close the image gallery**
Navigate the gallery with the `arrow keys` or `W`,`A`,`S`,`D` and load the selected image with `Enter` or the `E` key.
The bottom gallery can be turned on or off
Batch Resizing
### Convert/Optimize all your pictures
All files from the `Source folder` will be selected for processing and will be sent to `Output folder`. The default name for the output folder will be **Processed Pictures**.
If the *Output folder* is the same as the *Source folder*, or left blank, the files will be overwrittten.
The `Convert to` dropdown option allows you to convert all the files to a popular format.
The `Compression` dropdown option allows you to compress the files, either without losing quality or sacrifing some quality for greater reduced file size.
The `Quality` dropdown option allows you to change quality of supported file types. The higher the Quality setting, the more detail is preserved in the image, but the larger the file size.
The `Resize` dropdown option allows you to resize the picture by **height**, **width** and **percentage** while keeping the aspect ratio of the image.
___
### Renaming
Rename or move files in the titlebar by pressing `F2` or right clicking it.
Changing the file extension will convert the image to the respective format.
