Hi Adam and Jim and the list,

Thanks guys for considering my opinion.
This would be a very nice thing however what bothers me is that I have
to right click on every image and select the function "title editing"
(or so).  Whenever I am in the process of writing titles I am
concentrating on the story on the images and it is very much bothering
that I have to repeat these extra clicks all the time instead of being
able to write the titles as a sequence.

Indeed, picasa is not very optimal either, since it requires an extra
click under every image but it is probably the least that we can
expect from a user.

On the other hand, being able to edit titles in full screen mode would
be a super cool thing but I would consider full screen operations only
as a secondary thing, since most users think of it as a "display only"
thing, it is meant to be a monitor for the end product, the slide
show. So what I am proposing is first to be able to access caption
editing faster then it is now,
plus, if a user presses PgDn - PgUp in the editing mode, focus moves
to the next next - previous image caption.

What do you think?

ps: did my former mail on sorting reached the list? In that I wrote that
I would be very very happy to meet an image viewer in which I can
order images just like in picasa (arbitrarily moving back and forth)
and be able to export to picasa web storage with that order and
captions and keep it in sync in both ways (upstream and downstream).

I would want to completely replace picasa with an alternative because
of its annoying bugs and hidden behaviour.
