I thought the benefits were obvious. :-) You can scroll the image collection without needing to drag the scrollbar handle to a specific position. Pressing a button is much simpler than draging a handle when you just want to have a look at the image collection.

IMHO, filenames in the context the EOG thumbnail pane is not a central part of it. The plan is to add tolltips to the thumbnails for quick checking the filename if needed. But I don't think they should appear in the pane.

I haven't seen any size change on my tests. When you commit EogJobSave I'll do more tests. Of course, you can fix any issue you encounter anytime. :-) --lucasr _______________________________________________ Eog-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/eog-list
