Re: Perl/Tk widget for displaying images and thumbnails

The first Module you want to look at is Tk::Photo. There also might be loaders for particular types, for example, Tk::JPEG. At present time, it only supports the following formats: GIF, XBM, XPM, BMP, JPEG, PNG and PPM/PGM.

As for examples, you can check out my nodes: Slide view of pictures for Tk::Photo, and Re: clickable slide show perl for Tk::Thumbnail.

You should learn to ignore XP - it's quite useless. ;-) For example, just take a look at TheDamian's XP, and compare with pg. Now, pg may indeed be a perl genius. Perhaps a 9 on a scale 1..10. But TheDamian knows more about perl than, well, I think perl does. :-) XP is just a number. That said, pg otherwise appears quite knowledgeable about Tk, so take his advice anyway. Do it because he's knowledgeable on the current subject, not because he's got more XP than :insert person:. :-)	[reply]

I tried your "Slide view of pictures" and is really great. I had to make the correction zertara recommended also. However, I have to start the script from a terminal. If I try to open it from another Perl/Tk app, it will open on the first jpeg image, and then it will stop altogether. Any suggestion? Thank you very much Chris	[reply]
