Annoying flickering when changing from normal to hi-res image #176

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

more of an enhancement, actually.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Hover any thumbnail to go from normal to hi-res previewing

Hover Zoom version: latest one; not sure where to see it.
Google Chrome version:15.0.874.106
Operating system: osx snow-leo

When changing from lo-res to hi-res zoom, enlarge the already loaded small 
preview as a "background" for the hi-res version. I have seen it done on some 
sites and it makes a big difference, not having to stare at a huge white 
rectangle while the image loads..
And since you already have the small image loaded and the size that it has to 
be resized to, it seems like an easy addition. 

Thanks

And I guess you could use the same technique for loading the thumbnail (when 
available) as background for the small version.

OK, I'll look into it. Though Hover Zoom only handle two image sizes on the 
fly: thumbnail and zoomed version. The normal vs. hi-res version can only be 
changed in the options page. Or maybe you were talking about something else...

I see what you mean.  But for me, at least on flickr, it does this even when 
"load hi-res" is off. When i get to my computer i think i can make a screen 
recording if it would help you see what I mean.

I see. This is a different problem, as you reported in issue 175, I'll try to 
fix it.
