You mean opening a second image from outside Gweview (e.g. Dolphin)? I'd say having two instances of Gwenview makes sense here, that way I can for example compare the two images by having both windows side-by-side (In reply to Nicolas Fella from comment #1) > You mean opening a second image from outside Gweview (e.g. Dolphin)? Yes, correct > I'd say having two instances of Gwenview makes sense here, that way I can > for example compare the two images by having both windows side-by-side To me that's a different use case - I agree that comparing two images side-by-side is something that might be useful sometimes but that should be a feature of a running gwenview instance, E.g. marking two images with an option to open them side-by-side or alternatively right-click an image and then select 'open in new instance'. Clicking one a few images in a file browser like Dolphin I would not expect that each one of them opens in a separate instance. Gwenview already has that feature, in fact! :) Nonetheless, there are valid use cases for opening multiple instances, so I don't think we can do this, sorry. |
