Slide2View (S2V) is a stylus-free picture viewing application. It can also be used to set up the wallpapers for S2U2 (0.97 or later); assign a pic to a contact; set it as Today’s wallpaper; or send it via MMS/email.

Changes:

– fixed the occasional bug that S2V quit unexpectedly when viewing a particular folder.
– added the options to change the sorting menu symbol. It’s only useful for those devices that cannot display the triangles on the sorting menu. How? Create a registry value AscendingSymbol (String) at HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareA_CS2V, set the content to whatever you want, e.g. ^, or even a word (ascending). Create another one called DescendingSymbol for the descending order.
– fixed some minor bugs.
