A.7. Using Konqueror to View
Images
You can also use the Konqueror file manager
to view images. Using Konqueror as an
image browser works similarly to
Nautilus.
Konqueror automatically generates
thumbnail preview icons within the file browser window. When you
double-click on a thumbnail icon, the browser displays the image
in its native size, as shown in Figure A-13.
To zoom in and out of an image, you first need to change the
way Konqueror renders the image. From
the window menu, choose =>
=> . This re-displays the image and
allows you to rotate and zoom in on the image using the two
magnifying glass icons or the magnification percentage drop-down
menu on the toolbar, as shown in Figure A-14.
You can also open the image with more advanced image viewers, such as
the GIMP. Right-click on the image,
choose and select the
GIMP. You can also select
Other..., which opens a pop-up menu that
lists all available applications. Make your selection from the
various graphics applications, as shown in Figure A-15.
