-======== Requirements
+## Requirements
Required libraries:
- GTK+ 2.??.x: ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk
-FIXME: determine realistic requirements.
-It compiles with GTK 2.10, but some features are disabled and the testing was
-minimal. Please report success or falilures.
+ GTK+ 3.00
+ www.gtk.org
+ enabled by default
+ disable with configure option: --disable-gtk3
+ or
+ GTK+ 2.20
+ disabled by default when GTK+3 libraries are found.
+ enable with configure option: --disable-gtk3
+ optional items map display and GPU acceleration are not available
+ with GTK2
+
+ Note: GTK+3 is still somehow experimental. It is needed for some
+ features but we have several complains about the GTK+3 usability.
+
+ So if you need a stable version, you are advised to compile it
+ with GTK+2. If you want to play with the cool new features, use
+ GTK+3.
Optional libraries:
- lcms, for color management support: http://www.littlecms.com
- (disable with configure option: '--without-lcms')
- exiv2, for enhanced exif support: http://www.exiv2.org/
- (disable with configure option: '--without-exiv2')
- - due to fast development, newer versions work significantly better
- FIXME: minimal version ?
- lirc, for remote control support: http://www.lirc.org/
- (disable with configure option: '--disable-lirc')
- libchamplain - experimental map support, dissabled by default

- %date% File date
- %size% File size
- %width% Image width
- %height% Image height
- %res% Image resolution
- %keywords% Image keywords from metadata
- %comment% Image comment from metadata
-
- To access exif data use the exif name:
- %Exif.Photo.DateTimeOriginal% Date of the original shot
-
- Pre-formatted exif data is also available:
- formatted.Camera Camera and sofware name
- formatted.DateTime Image Date
- formatted.ShutterSpeed Shutter speed in seconds (ie. 1/60s)
- formatted.Aperture Aperture (ie. f5.6)
- formatted.ExposureBias Exposure bias (ie. +0.3)
- formatted.ISOSpeedRating ISO sensitivity (ie. 100)
- formatted.FocalLength Focal length
- formatted.FocalLength35mmFilm Focal length 35mm
- formatted.SubjectDistance Subject distance
- formatted.Flash Flash
- formatted.Resolution Resolution
- formatted.ColorProfile Color profile
- formatted.GPSPosition GPS position
- formatted.GPSAltitude GPS altitude
-
- You can limit the length of displayed data using :number notation:
- %formatted.Camera:20% will truncate the displayed data to 20 characters
- and will add 3 dots at the end to denote the truncation.
-
- If two or more variables are connected with the |-sign, it prints available
- variables with a separator:
- %formatted.ShutterSpeed%|%formatted.ISOSpeedRating%|%formatted.FocalLength%
- could show:
- "1/20s - 400 - 80 mm"
- or
- "1/200 - 80 mm" if there's no ISO information in the Exif data.
-
- If a line is empty, it is removed.
- This allows to add lines that totally disappear when no data is available.
-
- Extra string uses special character '*' to mark the position of the data.
- If no '*' is present, then extra string is just appended to data.
- Any "\n" is replaced by a newline on display.
- Pango mark up is accepted in left and right parts.
- If data is empty, nothing will be displayed.
-
- Examples:
- "%name:<i>*</i>\n%" -> name is displayed in italics ended with a newline
- "%size:\n%" -> size is displayed with a newline at end
- "%formatted.ISOSpeedRating:ISO *%" -> ie. "ISO 100"
- "Collection <b>*</b>\n" -> display collection name in bold prefixed by
- "Collection " and a newline is appended
