Did you mean to CC kget@? I left them in CC, just in case. Full quote

Thanks :)

If you mean how often the image is so large that I move the mouse outside
of the window while moving around the visible part: quite often.

While we are at it, could you guys make shift-arrow, ctrl-arrow or some
such move the image as if I dragged it? That would save huge amounts of
time.
Maybe even pixel-exact moving with ctrl-arrow, larger chunks with
shift-arrow and fast moving with shift-ctrl-arrow.
