The Image-View of the android app "A Photo Manager" shows one photo at a time.

From here you can process the image (zoom, copy, delete, send, set-Geo, ...) or swipe to next/previous photo.

You can reach the Image-View via

• Gallery-View: taping a photo
• Gallery-View in multi selection mode: long taping a photo
• Geographic-Map's contextmenu by long tapping a marker and selecting menu "Show Photo(s)".
• Folder- or Date-Picker's contextmenu by long tapping a folder and selecting menu "Show Photo(s)".
• android filemanager or android gallery if you open/view/send/send_to an image from there.

• Shows one current photo.

  • Guestures: Two finger to zoom image; scroll left,right,up,down
  • swiping for next/previous image

• symbols in the Actionbar (or overflow menu):

  • send/share the current photo via email, blue tooth, ....
  • open current photo in image editor if one is installed

• Optioal Context Display: (new in version 0.6.1)

  • Shows additional text that relates to last menucommand and a button to execute the command again

• file operations edit/copy/rename/move/delete/set-geo/set-tags

  • Move and Rename is blocked while Media Scanner is active to avoid conflicts/inconsistent data.
  • The set geo menu allows you to change the photos geo location (latitude/longitude).
    • The previous geo-picks for "Set Geo" are shown as blue markers if you select the geo from a map.
    • Note: You can change size and filename of the previous geo-picks-history through Set Geo History XXX in the Settings View.

• menu command details : show extended image properties (Exif, IPTC, XMP, ICC). See also photo properties(exif)

• menu command slideshow : automatic showing next image every 1.5 seconds. Tuching the image stops the slideshow

  • Note: You can change the slide time through Slide Show Intervall in millisecs in the Settings View.

• menu command slideshow : Open in Filemanager: open this directory in a filemanager app.

  • only available if at least one filemanager is installed that supports ACTION_VIEW with mime either "resource/folder" or "vnd.android.document/directory".
  • (i.e. Simple filemanager)

• menu command Show in new Gallery : opens a new Gallery-View that is prefiltered by the directory of the current image.

• menu command Show in map : show the current image in the Geografic-Map with a red marker.

  • Note: This menu command is only available if the photo has geo-info.
  • Note: Green Markers are hidden in this mode.

• menu command view in external geo app : open a chooser for geo-apps (i.e. an app that understands "view geo:-uri" with the geo-info of the current photo like googlemaps, navigation-app, ...)

• menu command Load Context : open a chooser to pick wich Context-Detail/Context-Button should be displayed. (New in version 0.6.1)

• the actionbar is automatically hidden after a short time if the screen is not touched.

  • Note: You can change this time through Auto Hide Actionbar after millisecs in the Settings View. "0" means do not hide.

(Since 0.5.1) You can adjust photo quality/performance through Big photo width/height in the Settings View.

• Loading high resolution photos into Image-View may need up to 1,5 seconds thus preventing fast swiping through the images.
• APhotoManager can load precalculated downscaled mini-versions (a. k. a. thumbnails) which is much faster (< 0.1 seconds) so swiping is possible again.
• If the photo is bigger than Big-photo-width-height-value then it uses thumbnails to allow fast swiping.
• Thumbnails means memoryefficient, fast, but lower-quality.
• As soon as you zoom the full resolution image is loaded.

Since app version 0.6.1 the Image-View remembers the last executed image menu command and

• shows the context-button to re-execute this command.
• shows the context-display with additional text that relates to this command

Example:

• after executing the command "Set Tags" the display shows image-s tags and a button to set tags
• after executing the command "Set Geo" the display shows image-s geo latitude/longitude and a button to set geo

Note:

• Long-press on the context-button shows the current function as a tooltip.
• If the last executed command was not an image menu command the context-button/context-display is hidden
• The menu command Load Context opens a chooser to pick the context to be displayed.
  • If you long-tap in the context picker you get a context menu:
    • Edit: Opens a text editor that opens the properites-file ImageContextSqlDef.properties that defines names and sql to calculate the content for context-display.

When you first call edit from the menu command Load Context plus long-tap plus edit the file /storage/sdcard0/databases/sql/ImageContextSqlDef.properties is generated that contains all predefined Context-Display-definitions in the properties file format

• menu-name=context-display-sql-expression

TODO

• ImageContextSqlDef.properties
• '|' = newline
• ${sqlexpresson} and ${sqlexpresson|}
  • Virtual Album/Bookmark folder defines the filesystem's directory where Virtual Album/Bookmark files are stored.

Note: You can change folder through Report Folder in the Settings View.

• action=VIEW/SEND/SENDTO
• mime="image/*"
• extra[android.intent.extra.TITLE string]
• extra[de.k3b.extra.FILTER]
  • if there is no filter then swiping left/right will browse to images in the same (sub-)folder as the initial file
• data=file:{/path/path/.../file.ext} or extra[android.intent.extra.STREAM]=file:{/path/path/.../file.ext}
  • example file:/storage/sdcard0/copy/hello.jpg
• data=content:/external/images/media/{id} or extra[android.intent.extra.STREAM]=content:/external/images/media/{id}
  • opens image belonging to {id} in Image-View
  • example content:/external/images/media/52173
    • opens image with id=52173
