Picture Window Pro 8.0 Installer
This installs the main program
including the help file and extras (color lines, curves, frames
and tiles, sample images, shapes and textures) . The tutorial and
reference manuals are not included and must be downloaded
separately (see below). Picture Window Pro requires a computer
using 64-bit Windows 7 or later. Several features related to
advanced high resolution and multiple monitor support require
Windows 10.

A copy of the open source program Alt_Menu_Acceleration_Disabler
is installed along with Picture Window Pro to deal with some
issues with the way Windows treats the Alt key. When re-installing
Picture Window Pro, it is normal to see a warning message
regarding the program Alt_menu_acceleration_disabler being
in use. Just click OK to continue.
Picture Window Pro 8.zip –
Last updated 6-Oct-2024
If you have already downloaded the
full version as described above and want to update just the core
Picture Window program, as a convenience, you can download it
separately as a zip file. When you unzip the file (by
double-clicking on it in Windows Explorer), you can then drag PWP
8.0.exe to the Picture Window Pro folder (typically C:\Program
Files\Digital Light & Color\Picture Window Pro 8). Note
that this gets you the latest version of PWP 8.0.exe only
and not the latest help file, bitmaps, or any other supporting
files and folders. Most of the time, the only thing that changes
from one minor release to another is this one file, which is a
very much smaller download than the full installer. If you notice
missing bitmaps or want to make sure you have the latest help
file, download and install the full version. If you just want to
catch up on a bug fix or a minor new feature and don't want to
download the full version, you can download and install just the
executable file. If you want to be safe, download and install the
full version.

Slide Show Viewer is a stand-alone program that can display a folder containing JPEG or TIFF files as a slide show. You can customize slide shows, including the use of the so-called Ken Burns effect that lets you pan and zoom images. Slide shows can be operated manually or can be configured to auto-advance after a selected interval. Slides are loaded at full resolution and can be zoomed or scrolled while viewing. For detailed usage information, please see the included help file.
