GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 332712
Side-by-side display of photos
Last modified: 2006-03-01 04:29:38 UTC
ZoomBrowser, the software that comes with Canon digicams, has a nice feature which allows for 2-up and 4-up display of photos. The Canon implementation isn't ideal, though. What I'd suggest is a view where you get two large, empty photo displays (each about 1/2 of the screen), and beside/above/below/somewhere a list of thumbnails. One could then drag a thumbnail into one of the display regions to view it at a larger size (and be able to zoom, see metadata etc). I find this very useful for comparing photos that I've taken with bracketing, or just when I have a few nearly identical photos and I'm picking the sharpest.
