I have a suggestion regarding flipping through the images in fullscreen. Having just come from years of using ACDSee, the most noticable downside to XnView is the speed of moving up and down the image lists in full-screen.
Proposed solution (and I guess it's how ACDSee does it):
Do the occasional keyboard processing poll during decoding and displaying the image, thus making it possible to skip an image even if it hasn't been fully rendered.
That would be especially helpful with the "high quality resizing" option enabled. Thus you would be able to skip unwanted images within microseconds, but have the wanted images in high quality anyway.
What do you think, would this be possible? I think the overall feel of superior speed of XnView would greatly benefit from it.
Faster image flipping and high quality display

This has been implemented in 1.90.
The remaining 'loading' parts are:
- using what has been partially loaded
- displaying on the fly'
...but they would require major changes.
As said, buffer improvements should be easier to implement for a future version and have an even greater impact.
