      • For Height: The value would control the minimum width of the selection.
    • Allow choosing a specific output filetype Auto, JPG, PNG, WEBP

  • Fix issue where it's not possible to open images in MS Paint because of a faulty path check.
  • Deleting the last image text pair causes the file index to break.
  • Unify path selection via Browse... and via '<Return>' .bind()
    • When the path is set via '<Return>', it fails check_if_directory().
  • CropUi:
    • Pasting a value in the fixed selection entry may not update as expected.
    • When saving as a lossy format like jpg, or webp, the cropped output is low quality.
    • Does not respect the Loading Order as set by ImgTxtViewer; Load image, Show image, etc.
