"wishlist .." - feedback for 1.80.2 (RC1)

Post by guest »

- Option for viewer mode: space bar acts as "get next file"
I'll add an option
-> i didn't find such an option, but it works (by default); ==> done; thank you!

- Stop XnView connecting to the Internet when it encounters an .url file
(eg. in XnView program folder) in thumbnail mode
I'll add an option
-> i didn't find such an option, but it works (by default); ==> done; thank you!

- Performance boost by read one image ahead = "off" ==> unchanged
I immediately disabled the View>>File list>> read one image ahead again
Why?
I viewer mode keep the PgDown pressed .. (so iterating images quickly);
you have, at bigger images, the impression that sometimes the processing hangs
(whereas in fact this is not the case: looking at the caption bar you'll see that in the background many next images are read, but you don't see them ..)
With "read ahead = off" you 'see what you press' (no impression of delay).
(its only an observation, i can live with the disabled option, but i don't now where it's really good for)

This is my remaining top wish:
a different behaviour of "Fit image to desktop, all" or "Fit image to window heignt", but unfortunately nobody responed to that thread :-(So again:
- actually for me the benefit of "Fit image to desktop, all" is only a big grey frame around images whereas the i would expect to see the images strechted in height (and the width of the window adapted proportionally)
- what i miss is the following behavour of "Fit image to window heignt":
* User decides about the height of a window
* Image is streched in height to the windows height
(images' width changes proportionally)
*** Now, the Window's size should be enlarged (or shrinked) to fit the "new" windows
width (no unnecessary scrollbar, no grey frame)

Kind Regards an many thanks for this great product,
