Windows picture and fax viewer

I got windows xp sp3 dell computer. And I am sure this is just changing a settings maybe but I am only using this for searching through ads.. But at the bottom the scroll left and right doesn't work.. Stays on that page that its already on.. how to make it scroll between pictures in that folder..

 

bump google did no good for me

 

Hi Silas, I also have windows xp sp3 dell computer ! What can I help you with? Are you trying to scroll with picture and fax viewer or browser?

 

Hm I this zip folder I have I opened the pictures and they use windows picture and fax viewer to view it. And I was wanting to scroll left or right(to view the next picture in the folder. Theres many pictures in this folder, and the "previous page" and "next page" dont really go to the next.. But everything else clicks and works fine. I tried copy and opening all at same time.. and it just opens one thing. So basically I am asking if anyone knows how to get the previous and next button to work?

 

Hi Silas, have you tried to press the L. arrow to scroll Left, and the R. arrow to scroll R?

Do you have the toolbar at the bottom, where there is a question mark at the bottom right? that is the help. You can click that, and and under index, click scrolling. That will open to the right, and show you the buttons, and also the shortcuts to use them..

 

Yeah I did all that. The arrows did nothing, just blinked like it would switch pages.. but doesn't and the help I've read over many times.. and nothing. Thats why I am stumped and asked.. It seems silly but what else is the question suppose to be lol I can't scroll but I can do everything else! But yeah I've tried that before..and I just did again..:cry

 

OK, sounds like you have "major issues" with that bugger! LOL OK, close the zip file, and try this.. Can you burn them all to a CD? If you have a CD burner, R. click onto the folder, and send it to the CD burner. Burn all the pics to the CD. Then, remove CD, and re-insert CD. allow the computer to read it, and a box should open, and ask you what you want to open it with, and click windows picture and fax viewer . That should show you all the pics, and the buttons too.

Otherwise, try a CD of pics you already have burned, and insert it.. See if windows picture and fax viewer opens to display them, and if you have your buttons and toolbar. I will do some sniffing in mine. Be right back....

 

Thank you for your help I got it working with your help. Thanks again.

 

OK, did you unzip the file first? :-o (dont' kill me yet!)

• Annotation toolbar overviewWindows Picture and Fax Viewer includes tools with which you can annotate your files, including adding text and drawing lines on your images. The annotation toolbar is displayed when you open a file you can annotate, which is a fax or a TIFF file. The following table describes the annotation toolbar buttons.

• L & R arrows Previous Page Move to the previous page in a multi-page file, such as a fax file.

=======================================================
I would try these:

• Other than the toolbar, there are keyboard accelerators that do not have corresponding toolbar entries. Note that these accelerators may change depending on whether you have an annotation tool selected.

• Keyboard shortcut keys, with annotation selected

• Move left LEFT ARROW Move the selected annotation to the left by one pixel.

• Move right RIGHT ARROW Move the selected annotation to the right by one pixel.

• Move left fast CTRL+LEFT ARROW Move the selected annotation to the left by 10 pixels.

• Move right fast CTRL+RIGHT ARROW Move the selected annotation to the right by 10 pixels.

=======================================================

• Keyboard shortcut keys, with no annotation selected

• Action Name Keyboard Shortcuts Description

• Pan left LEFT ARROW Move the visible portion of the preview to the left by one pixel.

• Pan right RIGHT ARROW Move the visible portion of the preview to the right by one pixel.

• Pan left fast CTRL+LEFT ARROW Move the visible portion of the preview to the left by 10 pixels.

• Pen right fast CTRL+RIGHT ARROW Move the visible portion of the preview to the right by 10 pixels.

 

Good to hear, Silas, now enjoy your pix!
