view two photos at the same time

Post by davincegiga »

Hello, everyone.
I've been photographing some of the atlas required on my work.

the thing is that is xnview capable of previewing two photos at the same time?
and when i pushed page down to change it automatically load another two.
acting like turning pages in a book.

sorry, i don't really know how to call this function.
i just know that in acrobat reader they have a function for users to read pdf files in which two pages show side by side at the same time.

thanks alot

Note a system for viewing two photos independently

Post by J Smith »

This posting below describes a system for viewing "two photos" but viewing two separate photos independently in two or more different directories navigated independently and permits you to view thumbnails in two directories concurrently.

Foxit PDF reader refers to the function in the posting as "facing." On the view menu, under page layout, it provides 4 options: single page, continuous, facing, and facing continuous. The context there is within a file.

To describe the request in the posting and the other thread above, I would propose the term "open mode." That would refer to the number of images opened when you open a file, or click a thumbnail. Now when you click on a thumb nail, you open 1 file. You could have options of 1, 2, 3, 4, etc. When you clicked on a file, the system would open that file and the next 1, 2, 3, or 4 files facing displayed on one screen. As you clicked on next or previous file, you would move to the next set or !, 2, 3, 4, etc. This sounds like a good idea to me.

Note that you can also display multiple photos simply by opening them and then using windows tile horizontal or vertical commands.
