The slideshow of program Image Viewer can be also controlled by a context menu while it is executed. The discussion of related details about this context menu is the part of this topic.
Pause
This menu item is used to suspend a running slideshow. Suspending means that the slideshow is stopped and the currently shown picture remains visible until the slideshow is continued or terminated. To continue a suspended slideshow just click this menu item again. Finally, it should be noted that the current checked state of this menu item is also saved into the program’s configuration.
Forward
This menu item is used to immediately jump to the next picture of the current slideshow. This is for example very useful if users don’t want to wait until next picture switch. But keep in mind, this menu item might be disabled. This is the case if the last slideshow picture has been reached and the slideshow is not repeated.
Backward
This menu item is used to immediately jump to the previous picture of the current slideshow. This is for example very useful if users want to see a previous picture again. But keep in mind, this menu item might be disabled. This is the case as soon as the first slideshow picture is visible and the slideshow is not repeated.
Repeated
This menu item permits to execute a slideshow in an endless loop. If this menu item is checked then the slideshow continues with the first picture as soon as the last picture has been shown. This menu item has to be clicked twice to stop a slideshow looping. Finally, it should be noted that the current checked state of this menu item is also saved into the program’s configuration.
Faster
This menu item allows a speedup current slideshow. If this menu item is checked then the delay for showing a single picture is reduced. For this purpose the interval defined in the program’s settings is simply duplicated. But keep in mind, this menu item might be disabled. This is the case if current slideshow has been speeded up already.
Slower
This menu item allows a slowdown current slideshow. If this menu item is checked then the delay for showing a single picture is increased. For this purpose the interval defined in the program’s settings is simply divided by two. But keep in mind, this menu item might be disabled. This is the case if current slideshow has been delayed already.
Interpolation
This menu item enables users to toggle the smooth painting mode for the current slideshow. Finally, it should be noted that the current checked state of this menu item is also saved into the program’s configuration.
Finish
This menu item should be used to terminate a currently running slideshow. Alternatively, every slideshow can also be stopped by using the keyboard key ESC.
Finally, it should be noted that some of the previously described slideshow parameters can be preconfigured using the program’s settings dialog. More about configuring program Image Viewer can be found in the related topic.
