33 <P STYLE="font-style: normal; text-decoration: none">This section
34 describes the options presented under the Advanced Tab of the
35 preferences dialog.</P>
36 <P><BR><BR>
37 </P>
38 <P><U>Full Screen</U></P>
39 <P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in"><B>Location</B>: Selects the location
40 and position of the full screen window. 'Determined by window
41 manager' will leave the window placement up to the window manager.
42 'Active screen' places the window on the same screen as the GQview
43 main window. 'Active monitor' does the same, but limits the full
44 screen window size to the monitor containing the main window. The
45 remaining choices are dependent on the multiple monitor
46 configuration.</P>
47 <P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in"><B>Stay above other windows:</B>
48 Enable this to have GQview ask the window manager to keep the full
49 screen window above other windows. Note that the window manager may
50 ignore the request. This option is not relevant when the full screen
51 location is determined by the window manager.</P>
52 <P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in"><B>Smooth image flip</B>: This option
53 delays the image change in full screen until the next image is
54 entirely decoded into memory, the result is a smoother transition
55 between images.</P>
56 <P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in"><B>Disable screen saver</B>: This
57 option will execute <I>xscreensaver-command --deactivate</I> once per
58 minute to avoid the screen saver from activating when GQview is
59 displayed full screen.</P>
60 <P><BR><BR>
61 </P>
62 <P STYLE="font-style: normal; font-weight: medium"><U>Delete</U></P>
63 <P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in; font-style: normal"><B>Confirm file
64 delete</B>: Prompts for confirmation before deleting files.</P>
65 <P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in; font-style: normal"><B>Enable Delete
66 key</B>: Disable this to disassociate the delete file function from
67 the Delete key. This option does not effect the [Control] + D key
68 sequence. May be useful in combination with &ldquo;confirm file
69 delete&rdquo;, above, disabled so that accidentally hitting a single
70 key will not result in deleted files.</P>
71 <P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in; font-style: normal"><B>Safe Delete</B>:
72 Moves deleted files to a temporary folder, for easy retrieval of
73 deleted files. Files in the temporary folder are retained until the
74 maximum size is reached, at which point deleting additional files
75 will result in the removal of the oldest files to reclaim the space
76 needed for the new files.</P>
77 <P STYLE="margin-left: 1.58in; font-style: normal"><I>Note:</I> Files
78 moved to the Safe Delete folder are prefixed with a six digit number
79 in the format:</P>
80 <P STYLE="margin-left: 2.36in"><I>nnnnnn_FILENAME</I></P>
81 <P STYLE="margin-left: 1.58in; font-style: normal">This is used by
82 the delete feature to distinguish which files to remove first when
83 clearing space for new files. The digit counter increments with each
84 deleted file.</P>
85 <P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in; font-style: normal"><B>Folder</B>: The
86 location of the folder used by the Safe Delete feature.</P>
87 <P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in"><B>Maximum size</B>: The size to use
88 for the Safe Delete folder, in megabytes.</P>
89 <P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in"><B>Clear</B> button: Removes all files
90 contained in the Safe Delete folder.</P>
91 <P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in"><B>View</B> button: Changes the GQview
92 main window to display the contents of the Safe Delete folder.</P>
93 <P><BR><BR>
94 </P>
95 <P><U>Behavior</U></P>
96 <P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in; font-weight: medium"><B>Rectangular
97 selection in icon view:</B> Enable this to change the selection
98 method used when selecting multiple items in an icon view.</P>
99 <P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in"><B>Descend folders in tree view</B>:
100 This will allow GQview to read sub folder content to determine if it
101 should display expander indicators in the folder tree view.</P>
102 <P STYLE="margin-left: 1.58in"><I>Note:</I> Disable this if GQview
103 wakes up auto mounted network shares, or takes too long to initially
104 display the folder view.</P>
105 <P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in"><B>In place renaming</B>: When
106 renaming a single file, this will allow the rename entry to appear
107 directly over the original filename.</P>
108 <P><BR><BR>
109 </P>
110 <P><U>Navigation</U></P>
111 <P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in"><B>Progressive keyboard scrolling</B>:
112 This will cause image panning speed to gradually accelerate when
113 holding down the keyboard arrows.</P>
114 <P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in"><B>Mouse wheel scrolls image</B>: The
115 default is for the mouse wheel to change the image, and to scroll the
116 image when shift is used in combination with the wheel. Enabling this
117 swaps the behavior so that operating the wheel will scroll the image,
118 and holding down shift will change the image.</P>
119 <P><BR><BR>
120 </P>
121 <P><U>Miscellaneous</U></P>
122 <P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in; font-weight: medium"><B>Store keywords
123 and comments local to source images:</B> When enabled, GQview
124 attempts to store metadata such as keywords closer to the source
125 image. The resulting location is the source image's folder, in a sub
126 folder with the name &quot;<B>.metadata&quot;</B>. When the image
127 source folder cannot be written, GQview falls back to saving the
128 medata in &quot;$HOME/.gqview/metadata&quot;.</P>
129 <P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in"><B>Custom similarity threshold</B>:
130 This setting is used by the compare method &ldquo;similarity
131 (custom)&rdquo;, located in the Find Duplicates window.</P>
132 <P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in"><B>Offscreen cache size</B>: GQview
133 only renders the visible portion of an image. To reduce rendering the
134 same area frequently when panning an image, some memory is used to
135 retain the recently rendered image data. This value controls the
136 maximum amount of memory to use.</P>
137 <P STYLE="margin-left: 1.58in"><I>Note:</I> This setting controls the
138 amount of memory<SPAN STYLE="text-decoration: none"> for <U>each</U>
139 image window.</SPAN></P>
