some good ideas

Post by Number_1 »

anybody thought of:
  • option for caching more than 1 picture in front and behind to improve performance when viewing through pictures very fast (now there is a short delay)
  • using boarder effects and transparent frame masks for easy picture modifiing (look at faststone viewer - it has nice effects)
  • using a clone/repair tool would be nice for those who don´t use Photoshop for easy corrections (look this at faststone viewer too :-)
  • menu bars which pop up at the screen if moving the mouse to the screensides in fullscreen mode (faststone viewer...)
  • there are so many browser layouts available and they look almost the same but one is missing: it is not possible to have the thumbnail pane vertical over the whole screen.
  • file association is strange - example: if setting .ai format not to associate, xnview doesn´t remember the setting (.ai is not associated anyhow)
at least i like the amount of options in xnview for customizing the programm :wink:

Yes, this is a good idea. Perhaps the user could also optionally specify the buffer size for each direction. In that case the number of images cached would differ based on image sizes.
