Save zoom & position of images

[hari3]

1.This is an imp feature.Add a feature to save the zoom size and position of images which can be viewed.This is necessary because there are certain photos which are very big in size and every time one has to zoom that photo one has to manually press the + button.

2.Loop the view of images after it comes to an end.

I too like the above features,admin please add them.

You mean to save those data per image? Like in a huge ever-growing database? I think that would be over the top for a file manager.

[hari3]

Okay,then what about 2'nd request -- loop the view of images after it comes to an end.

[admin]

Already there: "Cyclic Navigation" (check Help).

[hari3]

Also add an option to use mouse wheel for zooming images.

[jupe]

Another feature that exists already, hold Ctrl down and you can use the mouse wheel to zoom.

@jupe -- How to set the preview as the default picture viewer for all photos?

[jupe]

The only way that I can think of doing it is adding something like this as a portable file association (at the top of the list):

Code: Select all

"Preview|:fp"{:Image}>::sendkeys "{F11}";

but it would also close the preview if you tried to double click another file with the preview already open.

This (#178;) also seems to work, e.g.:

Code: Select all

"XYplorer Floating Preview" {:Photo}>#178;

@jupe -- how to use your and don's code because I'm new to scripting.

[highend]

Menu - Tools - Customize File Associations...
Click on the "New" button, paste the script line into the edit field...

What about saving zoom for a few images about 15 to 20 images only.

[highend]

Regardless if it's 15 or 20 it would still be an evergrowing database (design point of view)...

It might be an idea to open the Floating Preview to scripting, e.g.:

Code: Select all

FloatingPreview(file, zoom, position, etc...);

The Floating Preview would get some way to export the current view to help you construct the script line. A bit like google maps where you can bookmark the current exact zoom & position to return to it later.

So you could bookmark the preview of a photo's detail. That might be interesting to photographers. I would like it myself.

And then you could make your own database of Floating Preview Bookmarks.
