Description Bastien Nocera 2014-03-17 07:29:41 UTC 
There are a number of image viewing widgets in various GNOME applications, each with their own quirks.

It would be useful for GTK+ to have a stock widget to display images that would:
- load remote images asynchronously
- handle zoom levels (best fit, 1:1 zoom)
- handle touch gestures to zoom/unzoom/scroll
- is subclassable to implement things like cropping
Comment 1 Daniel Boles 2017-10-09 13:37:21 UTC 
I believe this is encompassed by Timm's WIP here:
  https://git.gnome.org/browse/gtk+/log/?h=wip/baedert/gtkimageview

It looks like it was rebased on master but still has some GTK+ 3 style code like calling show() everywhere... so I don't know if it's intended for backport to 3.
Comment 2 Emmanuele Bassi (:ebassi) 2017-10-09 13:43:48 UTC 
No, we're not going to backport a whole new widget to GTK+ 3.x, at this point.
