Andreas F reported this on the mailing list:
I have tried to use Shotwell with Canon raw (.%(=caps)CRW%) images. These image files are relatively large and requires a fair amount of CPU processing to be rendered. When flipping between images (using arrow keys) is typically takes 3-6 seconds from key press until the next image appears. In the mean time there is no visual clue that the application is reacting to the command, which is confusing. Would it be possible to add a visual clue (e.g. turn mouse pointer into hourglass or similar)?
He's using direct edit mode (directly browing photos on the local filesystem). We should do either or both of the following:
- improve prefetching so we can more quickly switch between RAW photos in direct edit mode
- add a visual cue as suggested
