XYplorer Beta Club
— Latest version: Slideshow v2.0 — Published date 2024-05-14
— Changelog and previous versions: SlideShow Changelog
———————————————————————————
• PURPOSE:
Run a slide show of your images.
• FEATURES:
Various settings available: — define duration between slides — enable loop — slide through all pictures in folder, with or without subfolders included — run slide show in fullscreen, floating window, or internal preview pane — display images in random order
• NOTES:
— Slide show can be interrupted by pressing ESC, or closing the preview window.
— Before running the slide show, the script opens a new tab listing image files only. This tab will be closed automatically when the slideshow ends.
— By default, it will only show standard images (jpg, gif, png...).
— If you have image codecs (FastPictureViewer CodecPack, SageThumbs...), it can make a slide show of all types of images.
— Or if you use the PowerLauncher script, it can use your image "definitions" from PowerLauncher's definition file.
To change this setting, edit the tweak "UsePictureCodecs" at the bottom of the script.
• TIP:
You can use other file-related Keyboard Shortcuts during the slide show (*).
e.g. Tag or Label your pics on the fly - and more! [pre](with CKS assigned to "Edit Tags by List..." or to Labeling, etc.)[/pre]
(*) Requires XY>=v12.40.0213 with FPEnableCKS activated.
• USAGE:
— Install the SlideShow script (procedure below)
— Go to a folder that contains images, then
— Left Click on the SlideShow button, or press your CKS (e.g. Shift+Enter), or
— Right Click on the SlideShow button and choose "Custom SlideShow", or press your CKS (e.g. Alt+Shift+Enter),
In the window, enter e.g. 1SLW (i.e. Duration: 1sec, include Subfolders, Loop, play in floating Window),
and...
• Enjoy the show!

I still end up in a different folder than where I started though - same as I mentioned before - I know you didn't change anything concerning that. I'll take a look at the code later and step through it to see what's happening.
Anyway, that raised my interest, so I completely reordered the way the "Subfolder" mode is parsed, so it will be much faster and responsive even without this setting!
