Yeah, me too -- in many cases I just wanna check do a quick check, and seeing just the upper-left corner is good enough, so I do this with pictures up to about 3840 x 3072 pixels (that's triple my display size in each dimension). Emacs scrolling actually works reasonably well if you only care about the left edge... :-) I think it's a good idea to have a limit, just make it rather bigger than any common picture size, e.g., 10,000 x 10,000. Limiting it to some multiple of the display size seems like pointless extra work -- Emacs on a modern machine is quite capable of handling even pretty big pictures, it's just the _insane_ sizes from corrupted or malicious data that cause problems. -Miles -- Do not taunt Happy Fun Ball. _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
