How to change default image viewer in Mac OSX

Post by mtbowers »

I know that you can preview an OxygenXML image by double-clicking it within the edited topic. Is it possible to change the default image viewer? I'd like my images to open up automatically in SnagIt, but the default viewer is set to Preview. Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Basically when double clicking the image in the Author page Oxygen will try to open the default application which is associated with the image extension.
On what operating system are you working?
If you double click the image in your file explorer (Windows Explorer on Windows or Finder on Mac or Nautilus/Other on Linux) is it opened as expected?

Regards,
Radu

Thanks! I figured it out based on your comment. I'm on Mac OS X, so I changed the default image application for .gif and .png files. Made my life so much easier :D For anyone else in a similar situation, here are the instructions for changing the default image viewer on a Mac.
