According to this issue, it looks like there are no plans, understandably, for making a version/fork of nsxiv but with native Wayland support.
Any recommendations for a simple image viewer in Hyprland?

Try swayimg
I like how it supports animated webp and gif files right out of the box. Would be perfect if you could open images from the file manager and navigate, but it doesn’t look like that’s in the works.
This commit seems to be related.
If that let’s you flip between images that are in the same folder using arrow keys (or something similar), that would be awesome.
I think the --all option is this mode.
Unfortunately, --all isn’t an option. The following options are available in swayimg:
Mandatory arguments to long options are mandatory for short options too. -r, --recursive read directories recursively -o, --order=ORDER set sort order for image list: none/[alpha]/random -s, --scale=SCALE set initial image scale: [optimal]/fit/width/height/fill/real -l, --slideshow activate slideshow mode on startup -f, --fullscreen show image in full screen mode -p, --position=POS set window position [parent]/X,Y -g, --size=SIZE set window size: [parent]/image/W,H -a, --class=NAME set window class/app_id -c, --config=S.K=V set configuration parameter: section.key=value -v, --version print version info and exit -h, --help print this help and exit
Hmm, i think I mixed it up with the config. There is an all option in swayimgrc.

I have a custom nuke opener file for nnn that do that’s that. Every time I open an image, it uses swayimg -r (recursively).
I gues you can do some like that with xdg-open
I navigated to my screenshot folder in terminal and opened an image using
swayimg -r
but it wouldn’t let me navigate with n or p. I also tried going to my Pictures folder and usedswayimg Screenshots/*
like this thread suggested, but still no luck.@guttermonk
Ahh ok ok, I misunderstood it, I can move forward with space, but not backwards…sorry!!
Thanks for confirming that you’re seeing the same thing. Must be a bug.
