hi,
not to worry Pierre, I have discovered a small tiny bug, not a big issue but one to still get resolved. I think just a modal issue.
to reproduce;
1.) Load an animated GIF in viewer (smiley GIF)
2.) Press Start/Stop to pause the animated gif playing ("Start/Stop" as toolbar icon)
3.) While paused, 'next file' to a next image file in the list and then initiate the Spotlight mode (do not draw a any spotlights)
4.) Notice how 'Start/Stop' button is still pressed down.
In the same session after of one of this same repeated reproduction I even lost the ability for the GIF to playback in the viewer (no star/stop no automatic playback of GIF) until I closed the viewer tab and loaded the same GIF again (for it to open in another tab) then all was normal.. I don't know how to reproduce this one but I will try otherwise there is the main reproduction bug issue steps 1-4, above, in this post.

So Start/Stop as a toolbar icon (and command) needs to be greyed out during "Spotlight" mode and not display as pressed down
