Auto Image Size: Fit Image to Window/Desktop, small only

Post by NM64 »

Here's an idea I came up with while browsing through several images of many sizes. The advantage of only zooming small images is to keep small images easily viewable (in a large size), but it'll also keep text or other small details on large images to be visible (instead of shrinking the image where you can't see them or make them out clearly).

Right now, all I can do is set it to "Fit Image to Window/Desktop, all" and then manually zoom in the images that are so big that their text/detail is lost.

This is a pretty simplistic suggestion, so that's really it :P

I would also like to see this feature added. Being able to have images that are smaller than my screen enlarged to at least screen size while keeping my large images at actual size keeps me from having to switch zoom modes when I want to see details in different sized images. I've found this mode useful in other programs, and I miss having it when I use XnView or XnViewMP.

Is that "Fit image to window, small only" ?

If so, I support.

Yes indeed it is.

The "/Desktop" is because there are options for "Fit to desktop" as well.

I tested beta1 & 2 and this function is borked up the wazoo. It treats small images fine, but vertically-large images are treated as small ones. It seems to be only horizontally-large images that are not scaled - but even then, you cannot scroll horizontally.
