My proposal is to offer such a preference for the Editor too.
In the editor that preference is even more important, because you do not see the underlying files/folders, and to not really notice when you reach a boundary.
[√] Stop at first and last image
with: [ ] flash [ ] dialog [√] beep
That way you can decide:
- whether you want it at all
- and what kind of feedback you want. (the dialog can feel quite disruptive in some situations, a more subtle feedback would be better then)
Would you please add an option to not show any dialog/beep/etc, just stop at first/last? For me the fact that the image is not changing is usually enough of an indicator (actually, there is one more — the Edit menu flashes, not sure if that can be disabled).
At most I'd like to have a visible 1/10 indicator for the 1st of 10 files in the status bar/titlebar, but that's a different feature related to the titlebar/statusbar customization
Tested b5723:
• In a folder with picture files only (png) the "stop and beep" setting worked fine.
• When you happen to have MP4s in that folder:
• If the MP4 is in the middle of the file order, then still it works fine.
• But if the MP4 is at the start or end, then instead of "stop and beep" it uses the "stop and show dialog" method.
• I guess this is because the MP4 is displayed not in the normal Editor window but another window type (and that may has its own navigation stack/methods)
• Not something that must necessarily be fixed. I just encountered this situation by chance. And as a careful tester wanted to at least report it.
