    <para>
      Selects the location and position of the full screen window. 'Determined by window manager' will leave the window placement up to the window manager. 'Active screen' places the window on the same screen as the Geeqie main window. 'Active monitor' does the same, but limits the full screen window size to the monitor containing the main window. The remaining choices are dependent on the multiple monitor configuration.

      </term><listitem><para/></listitem></varlistentry></variablelist>
    <para>
      Enable this to have Geeqie ask the window manager to keep the full screen window above other windows. Note that the window manager may ignore the request. This option is not relevant when the full screen location is determined by the window manager.

    <para>
      This option delays the image change in full screen until the next image is entirely decoded into memory, the result is a smoother transition between images.

      could show:<?db2html element="br"?>
