EXRDISPLAY(1)

📦 version 2.3.0, in ubuntu jammy

💖 EXRDISPLAY(1) 💖

okay bestie, so this is the manual page for exrdisplay, from the General Commands Manual section, and I'm gonna walk you through it like we're texting at 2am. no cap, every single flag is coming with us. let's go 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

exrdisplay — displays an EXR image on the screen 🌸

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

exrdisplay [options] imagefile

like, you give it an image file, you optionally give it some options, it shows up. that's the whole vibe ✨

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so exrdisplay is a simple still image viewer — no video, no animation, just one image, sitting there, being iconic 💅

and the special sauce? it can optionally apply color transforms to OpenEXR images. that's the whole point. that's the main character energy right there. 👑

🌈 OPTIONS 🌈

a summary of everything available is right below, bestie. no skips, no shortcuts, we're doing all of them 💜

  • -p — shows the preview (thumbnail) image instead of the main image. lowkey just the lil baby version of the pic 🍓
  • -l lx ly — displays level (lx, ly) of a tiled multiresolution image. it's giving "zoom into the layer you actually want" 🔥
  • -w — displays all pixels in the data window, and just straight up ignores the display window. we said all pixels and we meant it 😤
  • -a — ignores the image's pixel aspect ratio, and does not scale the image to make the pixels square. so if it's stretched, it stays stretched, and that's a choice 💅
  • -c x — loads only image channel x. just the one. no sharing ✨
  • -1 — sets the exposure and knee sliders so that pixel value 0.0 becomes black and 1.0 becomes white. perfect lil reset button 🎀
  • -n — normalizes the pixels so the smallest value becomes 0.0 and the largest value becomes 1.0. stretch that histogram, slay 📈
  • -A — same as -c A -1, which displays alpha 🫧
  • -Z — same as -c Z -n, which displays depth 🕳️
  • -s — swaps the image's top and bottom half, then swaps the left and right half, so that the four corners of the image end up in the center. useful for checking the seams of wrap-around texture map images. it's giving kaleidoscope but make it debugging 🌀
  • -u — changing the exposure and knee controls continuously updates the on-screen image. live, laugh, re-render 😭
  • -t u — use n parallel threads to read the image file. multithreaded and thriving 🧚
  • -h — show summary of options. the "help me bestie" button 🙈
ngl, that's the whole option list — nothing hiding, nothing extra. iykyk ✨
