Click on the Options Menu, then click Properties, or press
ALT-O, followed by P to access these options. A dialog box
opens from which you can change many of the basic functions
of IrfanView.
There are several tabs on the options dialog. If the tab
for JPEG/PCD/GIF is not at the front, click it to bring
it to the top of the stack.
JPEG/PCD/GIF
The top portion allows you to select whether to load JPEG
images as grayscale, which is faster. Click the check-box
if you want to use this option. Click it again to un-set
the option.
The middle portion allows you to choose the size at which
Photo CD images are loaded. Click one of the option
buttons to make your selection.
In the bottom portion, some option buttons allow choice
of several setups for animated gifs. The default is to
show animation. You can also choose to show only the
first image in the gif, or to extract all the images
into a directory on your hard drive. If you choose the
last option, be sure to type a directory in which to
place the images.
Below the option buttons is a check-box you may click
if you want to show transparency in non-animated gifs,
as well.
When you are done, click OK at the bottom of the dialog.
To exit without making any changes, click Cancel. Another
way to close is to click the X in the upper right corner.
For a helpful reminder of many of the functions in the
JPEG/PCD/GIF dialog, click the ? in the upper right
corner of the box, point the mouse at an item in
the box, and click again. A message will appear to
tell you what that item is for.
