XnView Software

Pause key is not working good, it's working as <right> key to switch to the next image, so it's not possible to start/pause the slide show (.sld file).

Hello !

• I can't confirm, it works OK here and starts¦stops the "Quick Slide Show" as expected…

- Maybe it depends on your other "Keyboard / Mouse" settings ?
- However, we miss a section in that page to set the "Pause" key behaviour, IMHO.

Oh, sorry, I mean the slide show, not the quick slide show. Create and run .sld slide show and try again. Use these settings (replace in notepad) if you can't reproduce it.

Hello Dreamer,
How can you test it if you have (like me) this bug first: the timer doesn't work at all in the Slide Show into the 1.95beta2 version ?

And you mean the "space" pause hotkey or the "Pause Attn" key ?
( because both work in my system into the v1.94.2 )

PAUSE works like SPACE

Yes for the (normal) "Slide Show"
But No for the "Quick Slide Show"

And about the timer, do you have this bug too ?

In view mode? Pause start and stop quick slide for me

Sorry, Not here in both cases into 1.95b2 :
1-) For the "Quick Slide Show" :
In view mode or full screen mode Pause doesn't work like Space.
Pause launches or stops the timer, and Space goes to next image.
2-) For the normal "Slide Show":
Pause usually launches or stops the timer as Space, but due to this timer bug both go to next file.

Oh ok, right, space is used to go to next file

For a next release:
I think it's better to have the same keys behavior for "Slide Show" and "Quick Slide Show".
So It's better to have PAUSE = SPACE into the quick slide show as default too
(options\keybord/mouse\space = Start\Stop Quick SlideShow), like into the v1.94.2 for the normal Slide show to start or stop the timer.
(and Up/Down keys or top/bottom for next/previous too, etc...).

Without this bug too:
The Info-Text blinks two times per image into the Quick Slide Show:

And maybe also with this suggestion:
Add into the contextual menu, and launch directly the timer into full screen mode the quick slide show function:

Yes, I agree, but I think more users want Space to go to next file, so perhaps also in Slide show it should be next file, don't know...

Original bug fixed.

Closed.
