I need to do slideshows with 20-30 full screen images, but they need to be selected individually or in different orders each time. I don't really care if it is just jps, or a pdf, or a powerpoint slideshow. I was hoping to use a keyboard remote, so "m" would go to image #1 and "r" would go to image #13, etc.
I haven't found any, and was hoping to avoid having to push the "down" arrow 22 times to go from one to anther.

Hello,
I have been lurking in this forum for some time now and am leaning towards getting the HD2. I intend to use it heavily browsing the Internet for research purposes and copying selections on the clipboard for later use. Is there a way (an app maybe) that allows you to use your finger to scroll through the pages and also immediately select text. I read somwhere that in order to select text you have to first press the menu button then press the select text option . Too much work especially if you intend on copying many snippets of text. Is there a browser that will let you select text immediately wthout having to go through extra presses.
Thanks
Hi
I use my Samsung Galaxy S4 that is stock and rooted with stick mount, an on the go USB cable and a USB compact flash reader to read compact flash memory to retrieve pictures from my trail cameras.
I load the photos from the compact flash to the external SD card of my device my device using My files and view the pictures using My Files
After copying the files to my SD card I can view the pictures one at a time just fine after loading.
When I select a picture Android asks me what app I want to use I always choose the Gallery
(note:I have tried other apps with swipe view capability of photos but it doesn't change things)
If I use My Files long enough it will start working the way I want/expect.
What I want/expect is to have a swipe view (sometimes there can be hundreds of photos of the same deer standing in front of the camera eating for hours, it can be a squirrel or a rabbit or just the wind moving some bushes so I want to quickly find some more interesting shots ) i.e. to be able to touch outside the frame of the picture and get a swipe view.
When I have the swipe view, I can swipe the current photo and got to the next photo or at the bottom have a list of little pictures I can scroll through to quickly and select the photo that interest me.
I beat and curse and thrash around to try to get swipe view enabled but I have never been able to make it work by actually doing anything but a few hours later it magically it seems to work as one would expect i.e. I use My files to open a picture (it then calls Gallery) and by touching outside the frame enables swipe view i.e. by swiping a photo to go to the previous or the next photo in the directory or scroll a list of little pictures at the bottom of the screen.
Can someone please help me to make this work out of the gate and not have to wait on the "magic" to happen?
A little background
My resident smart guy/employee/IT guy says that it must be building an index to create the swipe view, now this makes sense but sometimes I only have three photos.
I can understand it might take a while to build and index for hundreds of photos but for three pictures???
So if this is the case the build index must be scheduled to run periodically.
If I knew what needed to happen I could write a program that would force the build of an index.

[Q] flag pictures as "favorite" or to "reject" like in Adobe Lightroom
Hi there,
I spent already some time testing several "best" pictures organizers or photo viewers such as QuickPic, JustPictures etc. (the ones I found with some Google searching).
They all miss one feature I need: to flag a picture "to reject" and to flag as favorite with a simple gesture (not from the menu) (e.g. swipe up for positive/favorite, swipe down for negative/reject, or double tap to flag them, 3 taps to unflag or so...).
If you use Adobe Lightroom you already know how useful is to "flag" with the "P" (as favorite) and "X" (to reject) keys.
The feature is useful when you take many pictures of the same subject and need to go back and forward to select the best shot. You don't want to delete directly, you wanna mark many pictures as favorite and compare them later, same for the ones to reject. You mark many, you delete them all in the end without confirming to delete each one of them, but you answer only one time the "Are you sure?" question. Saves a lot of time.
Unluckily the apps I tested are all "old school"/"standard" (no fast way to mark to delete later), one must tap a top menu, then from a dropdown select "delete" and confirm each picture, or go to the gallery view and multi select the very small thumbnails from there, which is not practical at all if you need to see the full screen picture...
One app that was a bit better than the usual ones is the Sony Xperia "Album" app. It allows to select pictures from the thumbnails view and view them full screen without losing the selections when going back and forth.
But no app so far has a "flag" feature for positive(favorite)/negative(reject) like Lightroom. I've seen only "add as favorite".
Especially useful would be the ability to view (filter), in the end of the process, the flagged pictures as favorite, or the ones to reject (to delete them all at once).
I know there is Adobe Lightroom mobile, unluckily this is only for iOS.
If you know something like this please let me know.
Thank you and cheers.
I'm looking for a text only browser that doesn't provide the option to view images or videos. All the ones I've come across allow you to view the webpage as "normal" (ie, show images) if you choose.
I need something that doesn't provide this option and only shows text, nothing else.
If nothing like that exists, does someone want to build me an app that can do this? I'm assuming it would be relatively easy. It doesn't need to be fancy...

Just wondering if anybody out there might know of a camera app (or some other way to achieve this) that will display the image file name automatically for a period of time after taking a photo. I am using my android phone camera to record literally thousands of images of maintenance items and I have to write down the image file name on the inspection form each time. This is so that a link to the file can be built back up in excel and the correct image can be imported into the correct record back in the office. I can see the image name easily enough by selecting the image view soft button after taking a picture and then tapping the picture and the file name is displayed for a couple seconds at the top. The display usually disappears before I get the whole thing written down so have to hit it a couple times. This is just a pain and a time limiting factor when I have to do thousands. I'm trying to find a camera app (or other means) that will remove a step or two from the process. Any ideas?
The other thing that would help is being able to change the file naming protocol of captured images to sequential instead of the (often preferred) date/timestamp. I know this seems like a step backwards and most people try to change the protocol the other way but for my purpose, knowing I just have to add 1 to the previous file name is sooooooooo much quicker.
