To be precise, exact name of the plugin is Exif Display.

Hello,

I have a little question regarding View Exif plugin of Eye of
Gnome.

First thanks to developers for this useful and easy-to-use
program, which does very good what it is for, fast image viewing.

I know that your goal is to provide the user the best experience
and that philosophy is to not offer too many configuration options
- for example I read the discussions about possibility to let user
choice behavior when scrolling mouse on an image, between zooming
or going to previous / next image in the folder, and even if I
would have preferred being able to choose, I understand your point
of view.

So I'm aware that my question below will perhaps have the same
reply. This is just about plugin View Exif :

- First, is there a way to make EoG remember presence of the
lateral panel on the left of the window ? If I make it visible
with menu "View", then close Eye of Gnome and restart it, panel is
gone, I have to re-select it, on EoG 3.2 (it worked in a previous
version 2.32 that I have on my laptop in Ubuntu Natty, it remains
selected).

- How to make in this panel always the View Exif plugin the one
visible ? If Map plugin is also activated in the preferences, it's
this one which is automatically shown, I have to select View Exif
in the menu, I'd like to have it by default.

- On the View Exif plugin, is it possible to add some fields that
are also visible in the "Properties" window of the image :

General : Name - Width - Height - Type - Size

Metadata : Description - Location - Keywords - Author

Details : XMP Exif - XMP IPTC

I can remove the RVB histogram in the options but not add other
descriptions...

Because of course I can let the properties window opened and
navigate throw my folder with it, but it is not very nice, and is
easier to have 1 lateral panel with all the informations I want,
and not another window in front of the image.

Ex: http://pix.toile-libre.org/upload/original/1317722945.png

Is or will there a possibility to modify it, or options in
dconf-tools for example, available for advanced users who really
know what they want and do ?

Thanks in advance for your help. Best regards,

Xavier Guillot
