Duncan <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #4 from Duncan <[email protected]> --- What I'd want is an general configuration option to "auto-forget" changes by default, and when that is enabled, don't prompt to save changes (people can still save manually, of course). Ideally the last N (=2 or so, thus five max including current) images in each direction would have changes remembered, to compare if you're browsing back and forth, and I imagine all changed images in multi-image-view mode (which I don't use enough to have a real opinion about). But browse forward (say) three images and the changes on the third-previous should be forgotten, in "forget" mode. But that's optional. Simplest to implement, given that annoyance mode would still be an option, would be just forgetting all changes on image-switch and be done with it. That's actually my "unfavorite" thing about gwenview (which non-the-less is my favorite image-viewing app; that which we're passionate about we complain about =:^) -- that it's constantly prompting me to save changes when I'm normally just browsing and don't /want/ to manually save or undo [excuse the rant... mode=annoyed] *every* *single* *change* on *every* *single* *image* *every* *single* *time*!!! [/mode] Why can't gwenview behave like most image-viewer/editor apps I've used that let the user save changes if desired, but just forget changes without annoying the user if they go on to the next image without bothering? Of course having that "feature" (umm... bug to some of us) is part of what makes gwenview gwenview, and I can see some users not wanting it removed. Thus the simple option, even keeping the current behavior as default for those used to it, but letting people enable "change-forget" mode if they want, and not be bothered with the unsaved changes notifications if they do so. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
