Request: Keep viewer from popping to center when scrolling

Post by fwtep »

I'm using the 1.9 beta 2 and I can't find a setting that will let me move the viewer to someplace on the screen and have it stay there as I scroll through various images. It always pops back to the center of my screen. In other words, what I'd like to do is load an image in the viewer, move the viewer window to one side of my screen and scroll to different images with the viewer window staying where it is.

When scrolling to an image of a different size, I'd like the top left corner of the window to stay locked, unless the image is too big for the screen, in which case the whole window can enlarge. (Note: I have it set to match the window to the image size, so as I scroll to images of different sizes the window changes size.)

Is that possible already? I've checked everywhere but I can't find a setting that will let me do that (unless I _DO_ have it set right but it's just a bug).

Thanks,
Fred

I just noticed that if I have Lock Zoom turned on that the window stays put. Of course, the problem is that the window also stays the same size, so I can't really scroll through images like that.

For me, the window position thing is a dealbreaker, not that as one person I really matter that much. I'd really love to see this fixed/changed.
