Bug#495798: kuickshow: Feature request: minimum scaling factor



Package: kuickshow
Version: 4:3.5.9-2
Severity: wishlist

*** Please type your report below this line ***
Kuickshow can automatically scale small images up to a given scale factor to 
make them more visible on the screen.  What I'm suggesting is having an 
optional minimum scale factor, so that if an image can be scaled up by this 
minimum factor and still fit on the screen, it will be scaled as far as the 
screen size/maximum scale factor allow.  If it cannot be scaled up by this 
minimum factor, it should be displayed 1:1.

For example, if I have a 1024x768 screen a minimum scale factor of 3 and a 
maximum of 8, a 50x30 image would be scaled up to fill a space 400x240 pixels 
in size but a 640x480 image would be displayed at its actual size, 640x480 
pixels.

The idea is to make small images easy to see, but not make medium-sized ones 
look ugly with scaling artifacts or take up more screen space than they need 
to.

Other solutions to this problem would be fine too, this is just one option.
