Feature request: Slideshow only selected images #201

Open sybrenstuvel opened 8 years ago

Hey folks!

It would be great if the slideshow feature would only show selected images, instead of always showing all images. I'm not sure whether this could be the default, or whether a second menu item "Slideshow only selected..." would be better.

This feature is also available in other viewers, such as Geeqie and Irfanview. Since Irfanview doesn't run on Linux, and Geeqie doesn't support animated gifs, I'm eager to switch to Phototonic :)

Cheers!

You know... Its easy to do this with Phototonic at the moment:

  1. Select all the images you want.
  2. Tag them with a new tag "My slide"
  3. Filter by that tag.
  4. Slideshow...

That's a powerful way of doing this. However, it would be much easier for one-off slideshows to be able to skip items 2. and 3, and only execute steps 1. and 4.
