            Bug ID: 403162
           Summary: wish: smoother and flicker-free changing between
                    images
           Product: gwenview
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: gwenview-bugs-n...@kde.org
          Reporter: kdeb...@caseyconnor.org
  Target Milestone: ---

When using left/right arrow keys to move through a large directory of images,
there is a disturbing flicker between each image being displayed (perhaps due
to disk access and/or some other aspect of rendering the image to the screen.)

It would be very nice if gwenview would wait to overwrite the screen until the
new image is ready to be rendered, so the switch from one image to the next was
instantaneous and flicker-free.

Also nice: if gwenview could pre-buffer the next image whenever possible
(whatever would be reached by the next right-arrow keystroke) so there was
minimal delay when/if the key was pressed. If the user was last using the
left-arrow to change images, gwenview could pre-buffer the previous image
instead, etc.

(I'm on 18.04.3, apologies if any of this has already been done.)

Thanks for considering it!
