&gwenview; features two main modes: Browse and View. Both modes can be used
|
||
|
|
in a normal application window and Full Screen. Browse Mode
|
||
|
|
lets you navigate through your computer showing thumbnails of your images, View
|
||
|
|
Mode lets you view images one at a time, and Full Screen lets you make quick
|
||
|
|
slideshows. There is also a start screen that displays a list of recently opened
|
||
|
|
folders and &URL;s as well as your places and tags.
|

|

</para>
|

|
|

<para>Image loading is handled by the &Qt; library, so &gwenview; supports all
|
||
|
|
image formats your &Qt; installation supports. &gwenview; correctly displays images
|
||
|
|
with an alpha channel (transparency) as well as animations.</para>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<para>&gwenview; supports the displaying and editing of EXIF comments in JPEG
|
||
|
|
images. Lossless JPEG transforms such as rotations and mirroring are also supported.</para>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<para>&gwenview; can read embedded color profiles from PNG and JPEG files.
|
||
|
|
It can use the image color profile together with the display color profile
|
||
|
|
to output correct colors on the screen.</para>
