ImageUltimate v7.2.0

Version 7.2.0 - June 8, 2026

• Fixed: EXIF thumbnails did not work since Version 6.2.0 - December 1, 2024.
  ImageTask.Thumbnail() resized the original image even if there was an EXIF thumbnail suitable for the requested size.

• Improved: Stability and performance of image processing and image formats.

• Added: UrlFileProvider now supports Basic, Digest and Windows Authentication with new properties UserName and Password.
  Also if no credentials are provided, i.e. UserName property is not set, new property UseDefaultCredentials can be set to true
  to use the current Windows identity for Windows Integrated Authentication (NTLM/Kerberos/Negotiate).
  URL legacy format with UserInfo component is also now supported e.g. http://username:password@example.com/Subfolder/File.ext.
  If UserName property is not set then credentials from URL UserInfo component username:password@ will be used
  but HTTP request will be sent with stripped URL that does not include UserInfo component (to prevent UserInfo leaking into server logs).

• Improved: UrlFileProvider now throws more descriptive error message then URL is not accessible, for example:

  Error accessing URL 'http://...'.
  Response status code does not indicate success: 401 (Unauthorized).
  

  So when DocumentViewer can not open the file and show an error message dialog,
  user should now know that it comes from UrlFileProvider.
