I have test preview2.patch. I like it but I would prefer such a mode as part
of the standard thumbnail album viewing. That way you could still  use the
mouse wheel to roll though the album.

I have seen in a preview if MS Vista that their photo app has a menu to select
a preview size in an album view. This menu has also a  a small vertical
slider to adjust the size  continuously. The GUI reacts immediately when
adjusting this slider. The end-position  behaves like the F3-view of your
patch.

I dont think you can integrate a slider in a menu using Qt but you you can put
one in a tool bar or a status bar. That would be a nice integration :-)

Bye

Thanks for ESC. Maybe in future there could be button in Main Toolbar
for mode switching between Album view and Preview?

Very nice. Maybe could be implemented in Image Editor?

Nice weekend for you too. Great work, thanks :)

Yes, but later than 0.9.0.

I have just seen that to drive keyboards shortcut dirrectly from the preview
widget is wrong. This is better if the shorcuts are drived by the application
instance directly. I  will fix it.

I would assume this is based on hardware acceleration. At least, immediate,
smooth GUI reaction would require this. A hardware accelerated desktop would
of course open an impressive list of features, but we don't have such a thing
for Linux widely available now.

Sorry Gilles I haven't yet had time to test this, but I'm sure it's great ;-)

I'm agree with Marcel. This is an DirectX implementation. This is out of
subject into digiKam actually. Perhaps in the future using OpenGL...

I have tested indeep this implementation. i think it's ready to commit into
svn. Of course some improvements need to be add in the future, but the
current implementation is enough to close the 3 files in B.K.O about this
subject.

Your viewpoint ?

You and some other users have tested it and like it. IMO, if you say it's
ready then go ahead and commit it.
