Description

View Image Button (for Google™ Search) is an extension that lets you add a button to the Google image search page to view images directly. The toolbar button serves as an ON|OFF switch to quickly add or remove the button. Please note that clicking the view image button will open the image in a new tab. Moreover, this extension tries to find and open the image in the maximum available resolution (please wait for the image to completely load and render before pressing the view image button). To report bugs, please fill out the bug report form on the add-on's homepage (https://mybrowseraddon.com/view-image-button.html).

Does not work as of speaking.

It's weird. The "View image" button appears against some results, not all, but clicking on it opens a very small thumbnail, not the big picture or even the larger thumbnail Google is already showing.

It SEEMS to work on Vivaldi in that it adds the button, but every time it just opens the site with the image just like the existing Visit button. Looking at the page's code shows the button isn't even a button, just an object inserted in the same link as the regular one! From this I'm fairly certain the extension doesn't actually do anything and just LOOKS like it does.

Still opens the cached image, exactly like "Open image in a new tab" from context menu

No longer works, I mean yeah I'm on Opera, but it used to show up perfectly! Now I have to double click and do open image in a new tab instead, it makes my workflow clunkier : ( I tried turning it on and off and on again, nothing

Most of the times, the images shown are smaller than the original. You have to actually enter the website and open the image to see it in full size.

Only works about 10% of the time.

Only works for images that can be rightclicked and opened in a new tab. But if an image is loaded in a lower resolution via rightclick, it will load in lower resolution via the button too.

I use this ext in Vivaldi. To make it work, I have to turn it off and then turn it on, for every image

It works, unlike most similar extentions. But some images aren't displayed at full size when you open them using the button.
