Pan view does not use much from gtk. Most of it's functionality (even low-level drawing functions) is implemented directly in Geeqie. That means there are no improvements unless we implement them ;( On the other hand, "Clutter is an open source software library for creating fast, visually rich and animated graphical user interfaces.". That is exactly what we need for pan view. Compared with the current implementation it provides - documented API - many features - flexibility - HW acceleration > I really don't know > what you mean with using clutter library as a pan view backend.

I didn't look at details, but I think that it would need replacing the drawing functions in pan-item.c. The high level functionality could stay mostly unchanged (pan-timeline.c, pan-calendar.c). > > I have Debian lenny, so I think I should download > http://packages.debian.org/source/lenny/clutter-gtk to have a look at it, > shouldn't I ? Debian packages should be OK.
