This is pretty important if you're creating a slideshow/presentation out of a bunch of XCFs (or maybe for other graphics work). I see that Nautilus also does okay with XCFs, but they're blurry, and can't be zoomed very far. Furthermore, Nautilus has no slideshow mode.<br /><br />Here's a request that EyeOfGnome get XCF support: http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/eog/most_popular_6_months/<br /><br />It would be really nice if I could tell gwenview specifically what files to view, a la "gwenview *.xcf". Presently, it always includes all files (ignoring the glob).<br /><br />In summary, gwenview does a really nice job of turning a list of XCF files into a full screen slideshow. You'll probably want to name your slide XCFs with numeric prefixes to enforce a slideshow ordering.Micah Elliotthttp://micahelliott.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8115236289668114915.post-92126375997170398392009-05-21T11:48:52.321+03:002009-05-21T11:48:52.321+03:00I'm still using xnView 1.70 even though it hasn't ...I'm still using xnView 1.70 even though it hasn't been updated since 2005, looks ugly and is not even free software.<br /><br />There is no other viewer for Linux with that many features (Batch conversion/resizing, JPEG lossless rotation, lots of filters, Panorama generator, etc.). The only one I know that supports batch conversion is gwenview, but it's slow on Gnome and still lacks some features I need.<br /><br />Luckily a new version is in development (currently in Alpha state).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8115236289668114915.post-53375412573516788622009-04-08T05:51:00.000+03:002009-04-08T05:51:00.000+03:00Gwenview is a personal favorite of mine, it has al...Gwenview is a personal favorite of mine, it has alot of nice features when browsing folders.

Linux just begs the question, Which one?" This confuses the very newbs to which you refer. <BR/><BR/>I'm offering an Operating System, not a kernel. I can't imagine handing a Linux disk to a newb and saying first you have to learn to differentiate the desktops like KDE, XCFE, Gnome, E17, etc because that's where the big differences are, NOT between distros.juliebnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8115236289668114915.post-43341481660983627432009-04-07T01:45:00.000+03:002009-04-07T01:45:00.000+03:00I agree.
