The Icon-View Item Show FullScreen Overlay Button

备注

The Show FullScreen button will be visible only if you turn on the right option from Settings ‣ Configure digiKam… ‣ Views page ‣ Icons tab.

The basic slideshow tool will render items in the full screen without visual effects and without zooming. It is a powerful to quickly review album items. This tool can play album contents in a recursive mode that includes any nested child albums.

The Basic Slide-Show View Displaying Item and Properties

Lots of item properties can be displayed as overlay while displaying contents. The ones below are shown on the bottom left side as an OSD (On Screen Display).

The Basic Slide-Show Provides an OSD to Show Details and Control the Contents

The on-screen controls for the slideshow are:

  • pause play Pause / Play

  • previous next Previous / Next item

  • exit Exit slideshow

  • time Set time between images

  • trash Delete the current slide (asks for confirmation)

  • settings Adjust slideshow settings

Clicking the settings button brings up the slide show configuration dialog.

The Basic Slide-Show Configuration Dialog

The basic slide show configuration should be easy to understand. The upper slider adjusts the time between image transitions; usually a time of 4-5 seconds is good. The other check boxes enable/disable the metadata to be shown on the bottom of the slide show images during display.

备注

The Shuffle Images mode is only available in automatic playback, i.e. when you start the slide show via the menu or toolbar button. It does not work in Preview mode when you start from the Play button icon in the thumbnail or image preview.
