2. Project Summary
2.1. Project Description:
Gnome-eog-plugins is a collection of plugins for use with the Eye of
GNOME Image Viewer.
The included plugins provide a map view to show where the picture was
taken,
display Exif information, Zoom to fit,etc. (Refer to section 4.1 for a
complete list of plugins.)
4. Technical Description:
4.1. Details:
This package includes following plugins:
Map
Displays where the picture was taken on a map in the side panel.
For this feature to work, the pictures must contain geolocation
information in their EXIF tags.
Python Console
A python console for Eye of GNOME
Slideshow Shuffle
Shuffles the photos in slideshow mode
Zoom to fit image width
Adjusts the zoom so that the image's width fits into the window
Exif Display
Displays a few camera setting Exif tags in the sidebar and
optionally the statusbar.
A histogram can also be enabled which used to graphically
summarize and display the distribution of a process data set.
Send By Mail (send-by-mail)
Opens a new email in the default email editor and attaches
the selected images to the mail.
There is an additional plugin included in the gnome-eog-plugins called
"Postr". This plugin depends on the Postr client (Flickr uploading
tool for the GNOME desktop). The desktop project does not yet provide
this dependency, and the upstream community plans to remove this
plugin
from the gnome-eog-plugins module. Therefore this plugin is not
delivered into OpenSolaris.
This proposal adds gnome-eog-plugins to OpenSolaris.
This proposal seeks Minor release binding.
