Booru/Search

Default Tags

Default tags are what is searched by default when a new tab is opened

Limit

Limit is how many images are loaded at once in the preview grid, scrolling will make a new batch of this size be loaded. Having a large limit can cause slowdowns due to loading a lot of Images at once so it is recommended to keep this between 10-30. Most boorus do not support a limit above 100 so that is what the app allows as the biggest value.

User Interface

Preview Quality

The preview quality is the quality of the images loaded in the preview grid there are two options sample and thumbnail. Samples are higher quality than thumbnails but may cause slowdown if you have a lot of preview columns or a high limit. If you experience slowdowns or crashes you can try setting this value to thumbnail.

Preview Display

Staggered will display the images in their original aspect ratio (it will fallback to waterfall if the booru does not provide image width and height). You may experience crashing with staggered as the library used is buggy. Rectangle will crop the images to rectangles
