102473 - Automatic Image Sizing

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 73322

(SeaMonkey :: UI Design, enhancement)

Description

[Peter Trudelle]

Scheduled feature work for MachV:

Marketing requirements:
* This feature basically automatically resizes images to fit within the current
browser window.

    * Not on pages with mixed text & images - only when a single image is
selected and displayed - should work with all common image formats - jpg, gif,
png, etc.
    * Hovering over the image should produce a button that resizes the image to
it's original size when clicked/auto resizes back on second click.

Current engineering Plan:
Auto scale the image, put the knowledge of the current state (not scalable,
scaled, not scaled) somewhere, add code to the content context to offer a menu
item which lets you switch between scaled and not scaled if an image is
scalable. Scaling at the image level already works, it would need to be added to
the code that currently deals with displaying a single image "page".

Currently assigned to jag for planning/design, implementation estimate: 2 days.

Peter, this sounds like a dupe of bug 73322.

I don't think this is the best UI for exposing this feature. Until a UI has been
decided upon, ignore this part of the RFE.

Additionally, there should be UI that allows the user to choose whether they
want the browser to auto-scale images by default.

And yes, this is a dupe of bug 73322.
