fiv's browser and viewer + +

Introduction

+ +

fiv is a general-purpose image browser and viewer. This document will +guide you through the application and help to familiarize you with it. + +

Controls

+ +

fiv is designed with computer mice having dedicated forwards/backwards +and page up/down buttons in mind, such as SteelSeries Sensei series. Ozone Neon +series may also be mapped this way. Your experience may be degraded with other +kinds of devices. + +

Controls should generally be accessible through the keyboard. Pressing Ctrl+? +will give you a convenient overview of all shortcuts. In addition to these, +remember that you may often use Ctrl+Tab and F6 to navigate to different groups +of widgets. + +

Browser

+ +

fiv normally starts in a file browser view. On the left side of the +window, you'll find your GTK+ bookmarks, mounted locations as recognized by +GVfs, an item for entering arbitrary filesystem paths or URIs, view controls, +and finally breadcrumbs leading to the currently opened directory, as well as +its descendants. + +

You can open items in a new window either by middle clicking on them either +directly, or with the Ctrl key pressed down. Right clicking the directory view +offers a context menu for opening files, or even the directory itself, +in a different application. + +

Viewer

+ +

The image viewer may be both entered (so long as you have a file selected) +and exited using the Enter key. This way you may easily switch between the two +modes. When using the mouse, the forwards and backwards buttons will fulfill +the same function. + +

Double clicking the image switches full-screen view, and the mouse wheel +adjusts the zoom level. + +

Files are iterated in the same order, and using the same filtering as in +the browser. + +

+ +

File formats

+ +

The list of all supported file formats may be obtained by running: + +

+fiv --list-supported-media-types
+
+ +Unless it has been turned off in your installation, you may extend it through +gdk-pixbuf modules. + +

Thumbnails

+ +

fiv uses a custom way of storing thumbnails, and doesn't currently +provide any means of invalidating this cache. Should you find out that your +~/.cache/thumbnails directory is taking up too much space, run: + +

+rm -rf ~/.cache/thumbnails/wide-*
+
+ +

Configuration

+ +

The standard means to adjust the looks of the program is through GTK+ 3 CSS. +As an example, to tightly pack browser items, put the following in your +~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css: + +

+fiv-browser { -FivBrowser-spacing: 0; padding: 0; border: 0; margin: 0; }
+
+ +

Similarly, you can adjust some of the key bindings, as per the command table +in the fiv-view.h source file: + +

+@binding-set ViewBindings { bind 'p' { 'command' (print) }; }
+fiv-view { -gtk-key-bindings: ViewBindings; }
+
+ +

Should you want to experiment, you will find the GTK+ inspector very helpful. + + diff --git a/fiv.webp b/docs/fiv.webp similarity index 100% rename from fiv.webp rename to docs/fiv.webp diff --git a/docs/stylesheet.css b/docs/stylesheet.css new file mode 100644 index 0000000..b4b5b2d --- /dev/null +++ b/docs/stylesheet.css @@ -0,0 +1,8 @@ +body { max-width: 50em; margin: 0 auto 4em auto; padding: 0 2em; + font-family: sans-serif; } h1, h2, h3 { font-weight: normal; } +h1 { font-size: 2.5em; } h2 { font-size: 2em; } h3 { font-size: 1.33em; } +h2 { padding-top: .67em; border-top: 1px solid silver; } +p { line-height: 1.5; } .figure { text-align: center; } img { max-width: 100%; } +q { font-style: normal; } .details { border-bottom: 1px solid silver; } +.details br { display: none; } .details br + span:before { content: " — "; } +pre { padding: 0 1em; } diff --git a/fiv.c b/fiv.c index 49a04a5..33bb961 100644 --- a/fiv.c +++ b/fiv.c @@ -993,6 +993,22 @@ on_window_state_event(G_GNUC_UNUSED GtkWidget *widget, gtk_image_set_from_icon_name(image, name, GTK_ICON_SIZE_BUTTON); } +static void +show_help_contents(void) +{ + gchar *filename = g_strdup_printf("%s.html", PROJECT_NAME); + gchar *path = g_build_filename(PROJECT_DOCDIR, filename, NULL); + g_free(filename); + GError *error = NULL; + gchar *uri = g_filename_to_uri(path, NULL, &error); + g_free(path); + + // For some reason, it doesn't work with a parent window. + if (!uri || !gtk_show_uri_on_window(NULL, uri, GDK_CURRENT_TIME, &error)) + show_error_dialog(error); + g_free(uri); +} + static void on_help_destroyed(GtkWidget *window, GtkWidget **storage) { @@ -1101,7 +1117,7 @@ on_key_press(G_GNUC_UNUSED GtkWidget *widget, GdkEventKey *event, on_open(); return TRUE; case GDK_KEY_F1: - show_help_shortcuts(); + show_help_contents(); return TRUE; case GDK_KEY_F9: gtk_widget_set_visible(g.browser_sidebar, @@ -1612,6 +1628,9 @@ make_menu_bar(void) gtk_menu_item_set_submenu(GTK_MENU_ITEM(item_file), menu_file); gtk_menu_shell_append(GTK_MENU_SHELL(g.menu), item_file); + GtkWidget *item_contents = gtk_menu_item_new_with_mnemonic("_Contents"); + g_signal_connect_swapped(item_contents, "activate", + G_CALLBACK(show_help_contents), NULL); GtkWidget *item_shortcuts = gtk_menu_item_new_with_mnemonic("_Keyboard Shortcuts"); g_signal_connect_swapped(item_shortcuts, "activate", @@ -1621,6 +1640,7 @@ make_menu_bar(void) G_CALLBACK(show_about_dialog), g.window); GtkWidget *menu_help = gtk_menu_new(); + gtk_menu_shell_append(GTK_MENU_SHELL(menu_help), item_contents); gtk_menu_shell_append(GTK_MENU_SHELL(menu_help), item_shortcuts); gtk_menu_shell_append(GTK_MENU_SHELL(menu_help), item_about); GtkWidget *item_help = gtk_menu_item_new_with_mnemonic("_Help"); diff --git a/meson.build b/meson.build index 6b92b6f..9ef54de 100644 --- a/meson.build +++ b/meson.build @@ -73,9 +73,13 @@ if not get_option('resvg').disabled() endif endif +# XXX: https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/825 +docdir = get_option('datadir') / 'doc' / meson.project_name() + conf = configuration_data() conf.set_quoted('PROJECT_NAME', meson.project_name()) conf.set_quoted('PROJECT_VERSION', meson.project_version()) +conf.set_quoted('PROJECT_DOCDIR', get_option('prefix') / docdir) conf.set('HAVE_JPEG_QS', libjpegqs.found()) conf.set('HAVE_LCMS2', lcms2.found()) conf.set('HAVE_LIBRAW', libraw.found()) @@ -111,7 +115,7 @@ endif # XXX: With gdk-pixbuf, this even depends on currently installed modules. if meson.is_cross_build() install_data('fiv.desktop', - install_dir : get_option('datadir') + '/applications') + install_dir : get_option('datadir') / 'applications') else # XXX: The exe path may not contain spaces--quoting is a bitch in Meson. desktop = custom_target('desktop', @@ -122,11 +126,12 @@ else $0 = $0 type ";" } 1' "exe=$1" "$2"''', 'sh', exe, '@INPUT@'], capture : true, install : true, - install_dir : get_option('datadir') + '/applications', + install_dir : get_option('datadir') / 'applications', ) endif install_data('fiv-browse.desktop', - install_dir : get_option('datadir') + '/applications') + install_dir : get_option('datadir') / 'applications') install_data('fiv.svg', - install_dir : get_option('datadir') + '/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps') + install_dir : get_option('datadir') / 'icons/hicolor/scalable/apps') +install_subdir('docs', install_dir : docdir, strip_directory : true)
