I think Irfanview is great but it really bugs me that I keep losing my place by accidentally using the scroll wheel, which leaves me looking at a completely different image.
Because the scroll wheel is also used to move to a different part of an image that's bigger than the current window, I quite often use it by mistake. I also accidentally use it when I want to zoom in, quite often. Irfanview scrolls through images so fast that I'm then just left looking at a randomly selected image, and have trouble finding my way back to the one I was trying to look at.
The only way this can be turned off, at the moment, is to untick "View all files in directory.." in Misc 1 options. Unfortunately, that leaves me with no way to move to the next image at all. The next and previous buttons on the tool bar don't work if I untick that.
It would be very useful if that "View all files in directory.." option could be split into two parts, or just changed to:
"View all files in directory using scroll wheel"
I can't see any reason to disable the next/prev buttons on the toolbar as they're not likely to be pressed by accident.
I've just installed 4.10 and I see it's still the same, in that respect.
