CyClops2

CyClops2 is a clipboard enhancement/Browser Tool.  When you copy or cut a graphic to clipboard, it sees the change and presents a popup dialog which enables you to save it in a selected format.  When surfing, for example, you can simply right click any graphic and copy it.  The advantage over the normal copy and save routines is you can save it in different formats and with a revised size.  You can set CyClops2 to automatically save with a random file name in a default format. 

CyClops2 is also handy as a quick and easy method of converting graphic formats or saving a graphic in different formats to see the differences in file size and quality.

In the viewer, you can adjust the size of the view by resizing the window or rotate it and copy the revised size back to the clipboard before saving.  You can also paste from clipboard.

CyClops2 can operate in Auto Save mode when it will automatically save any graphic copied to clipboard to the default folder in the default file format.  The default format is set in the menu and shows in red on the main dialog.

Clipboard monitoring can be switched off if not required.

All commands are accessed by a right click popup menu.  Double clicking the tray icon will open the main dialog.  Double clicking the main dialog and the viewer will hide them.

The changes made since version 1.0 are primarily concerned with the use of Skyline's Imagelib  rather than individual components.  It is also more efficient, has more formats and has had a cosmetic makeover! 

Installing/Uninstalling
Extract all files into a folder of your choice.  To uninstall delete all files and the folder.  In Registry you will find an entry under:  HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Brs\CyClops2  to delete.

Skin
The skin can be changed if you really find mine unbearable!  Create a bimap 336 x 126 and save it as 'cyclops.bmp' in the same folder as the exe file and it will load it.  If you get really imaginative, send me a copy.
