In fullscreen mode, a small panel is displayed with functions: Previous image, Next image, and quick slide show.
Currently, the user cannot see whether he/she reached the first or last image. It would be good if the "<" and ">" buttons would indicate this.
Fullscreen navigation: First/last image?

Would other users also find this useful?
Re: Fullscreen navigation: Cannot see first/last image
More difficult to implement than a dialog „You reached to first/last image already!” when the user clicks beyond the margins of the set of photos. Besides that a dialog is more explicit to communicate what's happening. The buttons are already dimmed. How more grayed should we do them?
Also, below the Play button a line with „<image no>/<total images>” would be a good thing. The same code exists in the Viewer located in Tabs. (dbl-click on a image and look at the status bar)

In fact the very same code exists in the tooltip located in the top-left corner. Hence, I don't know how necessary it is...Also, below the Play button a line with „<image no>/<total images>” would be a good thing. The same code exists in the Viewer located in Tabs.

I think fullscreen mode should look nice and clean. A message box isn't quite what I consider a nice solution.m.Th. wrote:More difficult to implement than a dialog „You reached to first/last image already!” when the user clicks beyond the margins of the set of photos.

Buttons could be slightly darker. When disabled they could be very dimmed.m.Th. wrote:The buttons are already dimmed. How more grayed should we do them?
Good idea to display the "<image no>/<total images>" next to the buttons. This way the user sees all required info next to each other.m.Th. wrote:Also, below the Play button a line with „<image no>/<total images>” would be a good thing.

From my point of view the info offers info about the current image. For navigation is the small control in the middle of the screen therefore the <image no> / <total image> makes sense, here. But adding this might spoil the nice and clean interface that I'm asking for.m.Th. wrote:In fact the very same code exists in the tooltip located in the top-left corner.
