# 1. Introduction

GQview is an image viewer, that makes navigation of images easy. Images can be viewed full screen, and a slide show function allows automatic changing of the displayed image.

GQview is an image manager, with complete copy, move, rename, and delete functions available at the press of a button. Find the right image with the search feature. Image collectors can free up space with a function that finds duplicate images.

The one thing GQview is not, and never be, is an image editor. However, GQview paired with an image editor, such as the Gimp, can be a very powerful combination.
