But its open in "full screen" appears to be just maximised window, not real full screen. Did you manage to get to open in a real full screen mode? > * mouse wheel support for next/previous picture Ugh, I like being able to use the wheel for zooming. I do dislike how some image viewers use space and backspace for next/prior, even though I tend to expect it. I'm used to backspace also doing a delete, and it's somewhat disconcerting to use a deletion key. Using cursor keys for next/prior can be convenient, until you want to whiz around part of a zoomed image, and end up changing images. > Speed-wise they are both great, but eog lacks some essential features > and that is why it is unusable for me. They're both a bit basic, but then sometimes you want that. -- [tim@bigblack ~]$ rm -rfd /*^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^Huname -ipr 2.6.21-1.3228.fc7 i686 i386 Using FC 4, 5, 6 & 7, plus CentOS 5.
