In addition to the Pause key, right? Just to make sure i understand you right.

Yes

Also from browser - great! Thanks.

Edit: I'm not sure - also if I press Space (or Pause) in the browser?

Hmm SPACE does *not* pause the slideshow, it moves to next image *and then* pauses on it. This is very annoying when you see an image you want to pause on, and it pauses on the next image instead.
PAUSE doesn't pause at all either, although it'd be intuitive to use the PAUSE key to pause.
Not fixed in RC2 IMO

Yes Pause doesn't work in lite fullscreen.
Space start but not stop slideshow in lite fullscreen.

In standard fullscreen, both keys works good.

In 1.80 RC2, Pause key still doesn't start or stop the slide show. Space bar works o.k..

Windows XP SP2

You meant RC3 I think...

Yes Pause key still doesn't work in lite fullscreen only in RC3.

Minor - there's a strange "square" character for Quick Slide Show:
"Quick Slide Show[]Space" instead of "Quick Slide Show .......... Space"

Minor - there's still a text "Start Slideshow" for Quick Slide Show in the context menu of Viewer/Fullscreen standard instead of "Quick Slide Show" (slideshow works good there, starts and stops slideshow)

In RC4 this is still broken: Pause key does not stop or restart the slide show.

Perhaps a problem specific to my computer (Win XP SP2). Perhaps other people can check and see whether Pause key works on their computer...

Works for me. Just checked it.

On my Win2k &RC4, the keyboard always stops quickshow eventually, but sometimes it can take multiple tries. Delay (ms) =400. Edit mode.

Pause key works fine here too (tested with 500ms and 200ms in all modes).

But:

Minor - there's still a text "Start Slideshow" for Quick Slide Show in the context menu of Viewer/Fullscreen standard instead of "Quick Slide Show" (slideshow works good there, starts and stops slideshow)

There is a change to "Start Quick Slide Show" in Viewer, but it's still not accurate, because Start and Stop is possible, therefore I suggest to rename to "Quick Slide Show" - same as in the Fullscreen Lite.

Another really minor thing - change text in Viewer > toolbar button from "Quick-Slide-Show" to "Quick Slide Show".

Not fixed in RC5.
