Subject: About inline pictures
Date: Tue, 26 Jan 2010 16:56:13 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <874om8h3w2.fsf@newsguy.com> (raw)

I wonder if there are already settings that will prevent this problem:

When I open a message that has an image that displays inline, I find
that when I scroll down to bring the picture fully into the message
buffer, unless I'm very careful I inevitably scroll one too many lines
which drops the image instantly before I've actually had a chance to
fully view it.

To reproduce this problem set your emacs Xterminal to something like
a geom. of 96x32, then open the message containing an inline image and
scroll using the enter key to bring the image fully into the frame or
to the last line of the image.   Do it by holding down the `enter'
key.

I find it really hard to see when you've reached the last line of the
image and instead go to far and loose it altogether.  Requiring one to
reopen the message and re-scroll the image. (slowly)

(Of course this assumes the image is has enough size to require
scrolling to see it all)

Seems like there should be a few extra lines of cushion ... maybe
something like 3 lines beyond the last line of image so that its
easier not to scroll too far.
