Hello,
irfanview is without any doubt one of the finest image viewers around.
That having said I cannot believe that it still has one of the stupid-most mouse interfaces I have ever seen.
Meanwhile there is an option to have the absolutely essential context menu pop up on right mouse button. Lets call that progress.
But it still doesn't work in fullscreen mode!
Please, fix that ASAP!
I know, I have seen complaints about this as early as 2 years ago. This is most definitely a BUG and it is still alive. I am not alone in considering this to be extremely annoying and an absolute deal-breaker.
I know full well, there are feature requests to customize the mouse interface. And I would happily agree but this seems far away and, for reasons that would seem hard to follow, even controversial.
So for now just fix that bug. There is absolutely no need or arguable reason, that in full-screen mode mouse-wheel, left and right mouse button, cursor keys and PgUp/PgDn keys do all the same thing, that is transport back and forth through the image_list, when at the same time the context_menu is inaccessible, regardless of the option setting. And no, I do not wish/intend to switch to windowed_mode for that.
