- Version in perenthesis indicates first appearance of feature or change.
-
- (2.1.1) Add support for viewing jpeg images and EXIF embedded within
- raw files for Canon (.crw, .cr2) Fujifilm (.raf), and Nikon (.nef).
- Note that not all cameras that support a raw format will necessarily
- save a usable jpeg in the raw file (for example some Nikon cameras only
- store a tiny thumbnail within the raw .nef file).
-
- (1.5.6) The "shared thumbnail cache" is a proposal to unify the method
- of storing thumbnails, so that they are compatible between different
- applications. Using this option will allow GQview to share it's
- thumbnails with, and use thumbnails from, other applications. Current
- releases of GNOME (through nautilus and gthumb) and the gimp use this
- new thumbnailing system. The latest draft of the thumbnail standard
- is located on freedesktop.org in the standards section, and links to:
-
- http://triq.net/~jens/thumbnail-spec/index.html
-
- The shared thumbnail standard and GQview's classic mechanism can
- not be used at the same time, enabling the "use shared thumbnail cache"
- option will disable the use of classic thumbnails and use the new
- shared thumbnails.
-
- (1.5.6) Collections contained in $HOME/.gqview/collections are now
- updated when moving or renaming files, even if the collection is not
- open at the time.
-
- (1.5.6) The new option to the keep the full screen window above other
- windows is only available when using at least GTK+ 2.4.0
-
- (1.5.5) Dialog buttons are now ordered as recommended by the GNOME HIG.
- The GNOME Human Interface Guidelines live at:
- http://developer.gnome.org/projects/gup/hig/
- To restore the old button order you must be using GTK 2.6 and set
- the "gtk-alternative-button-order" key to TRUE in the gtkrc file:
- $HOME/.gtkrc-2.0
- by changing or adding this line:
- gtk-alternative-button-order = 1
-
- (1.5.5) The dithering option is now a hidden option, to change it
- please refer to section 10.7 of the manual (help -> contents).
-
- (1.5.0) Keywords and comments can now be entered for a file. Two places
- allow keyword and comment entry. The first is via the new image details
- sidebar accessed with (Ctrl-K), and the second is a details tab in the
- properties dialog. If multiple files are selected, two buttons are
- available: One allows adding the keywords to the selected files, the
- other replaces existing keywords with the new keywords.
-
- Keyword and comment metadata is stored in $(HOME)/.gqview/metadata, and
- mirrors the existing filesystem tree. Metadata filenames have a suffix
- of .meta appended. If 'cache into .thumbnails' is enabled, metadata is
- stored locally to the original file in a hidden subfolder ".metadata".
- If write permissions do not allow local saving of metadata, GQview falls
- back to the default $(HOME)/.gqview/metadata location.
-
- (1.5.0) Search dialog (F3 key) types:
- Path searches files in the entered folder.
- Comments searches all file metadata stored in ~/.gqview/metadata.
- Results searches the current list of results, allowing refinement.
-
- (1.3.6) Drag and drop has been significantly improved, with a few
- changes. Button 1 will now initiate a drag, button 2 will still work
- for this, the difference is button 2 will not change the selection.
-
- (1.3.6) A middle button click will now toggle selection of clicked item.
-
- (1.3.5) UTF-8 and filenames: GQview works fine if your filenames
- correctly match the prefered locale encoding (LANG environment
- variable), and prints errors on the console when they do not.
-
- (1.3.3) Safe delete does not include undo, you will need to go to the
- trash folder and retrieve the file(s) manually. The files can be viewed
- by clicking the view button near the safe delete option in the preferences
- window. Files moved to the trash folder are prefixed with a 6 digit
- number. Lower numbers are older, and deleted (permanently) first when the
- trash size limit is reached.
-
- (1.3.2) New in 1.3.2 are sidebars for exif data display and a sort
- manager. Exif (ctrl + E) should be self explanatory. The Sort manager is a
- directory list that allows copying or moving the displayed image to that
- destination with one click of the button - very helpful when visually
- sorting many images into subdirectories. To edit, reorder, or remove items
- in the sort list, use the right click menu. The keyboard can also be used
- by moving the focus to the desired button, then pressing menu/ctrl+f10 key
- to display the popup menu, or shift+up/shift+down keys to change the
- button location in the list. Items can also be added to the list by
- dragging a directory onto the list.

Code hackers:
If you plan on making any major changes to the code that will be offered
- for inclusion to the main source, please contact me first - so that we
- can avoid duplication of effort. A good example is porting any part of
- GQview that uses deprecated widgets to GTK2 widgets, there are already
- several such patches floating around. This is especially true if the
- change is listed in the TODO!

======== Installation
General install: make install
Removal: make uninstall
- - To build an RPM binary:
-
- on RedHat 6.x, 7.x use 'rpm -tb gqview-x.x.x.tar.gz'.
- on RedHat 8 and 9 use 'rpmbuild -tb gqview-x.x.x.tar.gz'.
- on other rpm distros, it depends on which version of rpm is used, if
- the option fails with the rpm command, try rpmbuild.
-
- Where the resulting package is placed is distribution specific, for
- example in RedHat it is placed in /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/{architecture}/

======== Editor command macros [section:editors]
- Any one of the following filename markers may be used:
-
- %f Replaced with list of selected files, may occur once.
- %p Command is run once for each selected file, may occur multiple times.
- none When neither %f or %p exist, list of files is appended to command.
-
- Use of the following to display output window for the command:
-
- %v Display result of command in output window, must occur as first two
- characters in the command, or immediately after the "%w" macro.
- %V Like v above, but when used with %p, only displays output window for
- multiple files. The output of a single file is suppressed.
-
- Additional macros:
-
- %w Prevent full screen from deactivating when command is executed,
- must occur as the first two characters.
-
-======== Additional comments:
-
- Advanced options:
- These options are not adjustable in the preferences window, to change
- them edit $(HOME)/.gqview/gqviewrc while GQview is not running. An option
- becomes 'advanced' when it is removed from the user's visibility, and
- only remains so that those few users that really want it will not complain
- about it's removal :)
-
- lazy_image_sync: false
- Set true to enable the old behavior of lazy image updates when changing
- directories. (viewed image will remain until a new file is selected)
-
- display_dialogs_under_mouse: false
- Set true to force dialogs to display under the current mouse position,
- note that this goes against the preference set for the window manager.
-

+Editors are configured via standard desktop files, see
+https://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/geeqie/wiki/GuideEditorsConfig
+
+
+======== Overlay Info [section:overlay]
+
+Overlay info format string syntax is: %tag[:max_length][:extra]%
+
+ %name% Filename of the picture.
+ %collection% Name of the collection
+ %number% Current number of image in the list
+ %total% Total number of images
+ %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 one 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: Collection <b>*</b>\n%" -> display collection name in bold prefixed by
+ "Collection " and a newline is appended
