How to fit images to total commander window (using imagine)?

Post by *raytc »

I use CTRL-Q to view my images in total commander (with the imagine plugin).

However most of my images are too big, they don't fit in the total commander window.

Is there a way to let imagine automatically fit the images to the TC window size?

Try to press "F" when you openend the image. This should toggle through the display modes.

I'm not sure wether this is default shortcut.


If that doesnt help, open the imagine preferences, go to Shortcuts, scroll until you see

[View] Always Fit image to Window Size

and define a shortcut you like.


There should also be a toolbar button to Fit image to window size.


Hope that helps

Right click on image (call context menu) - "View" - "Fit Image" - "Reduce Image IF Larger Then Window" (if you wish fit only bigger images)
or "Always Fit Image to Windows Size" for fit all images (enlarge small).

You can also use hotkeys:
"B" for fit bigger images
"F" for fit all images
(you must activate quickview window first with "TAB")

Thank you Seb,

The "F" did the trick.

Strange that "fit image to window size" is not the default.

Thank you too Gral for your reply.

BTW I don't have a right click menu when I right click on an image.

Press button in wheel mouse to change mode or change mouse mode to "Default" in Preferences or use keyboard: Shift+F10 or "Menu" key.

There is no reaction when I press the wheel mouse button on an image.

I used the "F" key and closed and reopened TC.
The "F" has changed the view mode and made it the default. :)

Shift-F10 doesn't change anything.
Are you using the imagine Plugin or the imagine application?

You can also set these options in the Lister menu (F3), they are shared with Ctrl+Q. In that menu you can also find the available hotkeys.

There is no visible reaction, but this should change mouse mode.
Try:
- press right button (notice action)
- press wheel button
- press right button again (action should be different)

"Default" actions are: context menu for right click, selection for left
"Browse" - previous/next file for right\left button

Are you sure you don't have the "Imagine" application?

I have the plugin installed.

raytc,
Please check Lister's window title, it must contain Lister (imagine) text if Imagine plugin is really used to display an image.
If it is really Imagine, right button context menu should work for it in default mouse mode, also Application key (between right Win and Ctrl keys) should show context menu too.

O.m.g. you're right.
Plugin was installed (the directory imagine was already in plugin/wlx folder)
but "imagine" was not listed in Lister's window.

I reinstalled Imagine and now the right mouse button works. :)
Thank you very much. :)
