Java Picture Organizer
Homepage: http://j-po.sourceforge.net/
JPO is a program that helps you organise your digital pictures by putting them in collections. There you can browse the pictures, skip through the thumbnails, share them by email or generate a website. A powerful picture viewer allows you to see the pictures full screen with simple Zoom-in and Zoom-out with the left and right mouse buttons.
A fundamental design principle is that JPO doesn't mess with your pictures. They stay unchanged on your disk unless you ask JPO to move them somewhere or to delete them.
JPO is not a photo editing application. There are many excellent packages out there with which you can touch up your pictures. You can make JPO open such a program for you.
Richard Eigenmann from Zürich has spent the last 21 years building and improving JPO as an OpenSource project. He hopes you will find it useful and enjoys feedback.

Why the scary warning about the Unknown Publisher? I haven't figured out how to make Microsoft recognize me as a trusted publisher. If you know how I can improve this, please write to me.

- Have you got a JDK 18 or later? Oracle Java SDK
On the Welcome screen click on Check out from Version Control
Enter the URL https://github.com/richardeigenmann/JPO.git and click Clone
Confirm You have checked out and IntelliJ IDEA project file: .../build.gradle
On the right margin you have a tab Gradle which gives you access to the tasks
Pick JPO > Tasks > build > build and it should download dependencies compile and run the tests
To run the project go to the Gradle Tasks Window click JPO > build > run.
Ensure you have Netbeans set up:
- Have you downloaded JDK 18 or later? Oracle Java SDK
- Have you installed Netbeans does it start up? https://netbeans.org Like Version 11.2?
- Have you got Gradle installed? https://gradle.org/install Use SDKMan for Linux, follow the "Installing manually" for Windows
Check that Netbeans is using the correct version of Gradle by opening Tools > Options > Java > Gradle > Execution . The Gradle Distribution should be Custom and point at your Gradle directory i.e. C:\Gradle\gradle-6.0.1 (knowing that the gradle.exe is actually in C:\Gradle\gradle-6.0.1\bin\gradle.exe)
On the menu pick Team > Git > Clone
Enter the Repository URL https://github.com/richardeigenmann/JPO.git and click Next
On the panel the tick should be on the "master" branch. Click Next > Finish
To run the application, click on Projects in the left Panel and expand the JPO project in the left panel, expand the Build Scripts item and click on the green build.gradle item. In the Navigator panel underneath, the various Gradle tasks will appear. Click on Build > run to launch the app.
JPO is a Java Swing application which uses the Guava EventBus to order and fulfil the GUI tasks.
Determine the scale factor you want to apply. For example, if you have a HiDPI display and want to scale by a factor of 2, you can set the scale value to 2.
Set the GDK_SCALE environment variable to the desired scale factor. This variable controls the scaling of the UI elements. Replace 2 with your preferred scale factor.
export GDK_SCALE=2Set the GDK_DPI_SCALE environment variable to the inverse of the GDK_SCALE value. This variable adjusts the DPI scaling of fonts and other elements to maintain their proper size. For example, if you set GDK_SCALE to 2, then GDK_DPI_SCALE should be set to 0.5.
export GDK_DPI_SCALE=0.5
