Slideshow

Top  Previous  Next

The slideshow is a convenient way to present images to people in a simple, uncluttered way. It is also a useful way to get a quick overview of a set of images and for selecting the best images from a shoot using the tagging options (described in more detail below).

 

The slideshow mode can be entered from main view or from one of the thumbnail views. If it is run from main view the slideshow will display all of the images in the current folder starting with the first image. If slideshow is entered from one of the thumbnail views it will only display the currently selected images.

 

The slideshow window fills the display and by default has a black background. Images are resized to fit the screen and there is an optional caption displayed above or below the image. A small blue tick mark is displayed if the image is tagged.

 

When the slideshow is started it will automatically advance to the next image using the currently selected time interval. The slideshow can be paused by typing Ctrl+S or by using cursor keys to select the next or previous image. Press the Esc key to exit slideshow mode or press the right mouse button to display a menu of options.

 

Images can be rotated and tagged using the menu options or keyboard shortcuts.

 

The mouse cursor will automatically disappear if the mouse is not moved for 1 or 2 seconds. Simply move the mouse to make the cursor reappear.
