           Summary: light-table should also work with the full image
           Product: digikam
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Debian stable
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Light Table
        AssignedTo: digikam-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: arnd.baecker web de


Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.5)
Installed from:    Debian stable Packages

In order to really compare the quality (like sharpness) it
is in my opinion essential that the light-table can also work
with non-scaled images (i.e. like the image editor);
Presently a reduced-size version of the image is used.

Still, I think that a 100% view is needed in the light-table.
Maybe something as proposed by Frank in #16 
of http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=140131
a possible solution, also from the users perspective? 
The idea is to replace the pixmap in the background 
(maybe from a certain zoom-level on) after zooming in.
