ImageWalker User Interface

Folder View

The folder view of the main ImageWalker interface functions like Microsoft Explorer with thumbnails. It displays the current folder and supports many intuitive functions such as file selection and drag and drop.

The tool tip shows information about the image currently under the cursor.

The buttons on the bottom right of the folder menu control view options and mode. 

• Normal View - Displays as many thumbnails as possible on the current screen.
• Detail View - Displays thumbnails and details.
• Print View - Displays thumbnails in an approximate preview of what they would look like if printed, made into a contact sheet or web page.
• View Option - Shows options that currently effect the folder view.

Preview View

The preview view shows the image that is currently focused in the folder view.

It has several controls along its bottom that control it.

• Scale Combo - Controls the scale of the current image. You can type an percentage into the box, a ration such as 1:2 or 3:2.
• Fit to Window - Fit the current image exactly to the screen. 
• True Size - Show the current image at actual size.
• Smooth Scale - Enable smooth high quality scaling of image.
• Background Color - Background Color.
• Navigate - Select a section of the image to scroll to. This only works if the image is larger then the preview window.
