I think that clutter libray is perfect for this. I have found this video which demonstrates clutter capabilities: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WZ2RbYXyo1E As I wrote earlier, we nedd somethink that replaces the Pan View (did you look at it?). Other modes, like the one that you described, are of course also welcome. The clutter window should be able to run in full screen or as a alternative in the image window. I think you could start with implementing a demo that will work on a fixed list of files that are loaded by this method: http://developer.gnome.org/clutter/1.9/ClutterTexture.html#clutter-texture-set-from-file Google shows a lot of code examples for similar functionality. Then I can help with integrating with Geeqie. Another possibility that is worth investigating would be to use Vala language instead of plain c.
