Subject: Auto-resizing of images in image-mode
Date: Tue, 14 Apr 2020 21:13:30 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <83r1wqgcl1.fsf@gnu.org> (raw)
Lately I noticed that visiting an image file automatically resizes it
to fit in the window, and resizing the window then scales the image to
fit.
This is a good feature (at least IMO), but:
. It is completely undocumented, AFAICT: not a word about this in
NEWS, and nothing in the manual. So much so that I originally
thought it was some inadvertent side effect of an unrelated
change.
. Moreover, the manual makes a point of describing what cursor
motion commands do when an image is displayed that is larger than
the window, but this can no longer be seen when visiting an image
file, because it is always smaller than the window.
. There's no way to turn this behavior off, so it's practically
impossible to view an image in its original size (unless you
manually invoke insert-image). It is not outlandish to envision
users who might want to opt out.
. The time interval after which the idle timer resizes the image is
fixed and cannot be customized. The 1 sec interval looks too long
to me, FWIW, but if it were customizable, my personal preferences
would not have mattered.
Can we please make this useful feature perfect by fixing these minor
deficiencies?
Thanks.
