Here you can set options that are special for the KView application when running stand-alone. What you change in here will not affect other applications.
Application
This option determines if the window and/or the image will be resized after loading a new picture into KView. With Only resize window enabled, the KView window will be resized so that it snuggly fits around the loaded image. Notice that this can reduce the main window almost to a vertical arrangement of menu entries if you load a small button pixmap (you can resize the window afterwards in the usual way, of course). If your image is pretty large (in terms of pixels), sometimes the KView window is resized in such a way that the caption bar completely moves off your screen. Similarly, Resize image to fit window resizes the image to fit into the KView workspace (keeping its aspect ratio intact). And with Don't resize anything as your choice, both KView and your image keep their size. With Best fit KView will resize the window to fit the image. The image will never be scaled up but if it is too large for the screen the image will be scaled down.
