on ristretto, the thumbnail bar an other items can be disabled. But resizing the window doesn't resize the photo. Normally I use the photo viewer from shotwell (there doesn't seem to be a separate program) is at least fast, doesn't resize, and keeps an edit bar at the bottom.
Don't know this, but it is for Xfce and it's install would install lots of dependencies...
There is that.
shotwell /home/cer/Photos/F_DSC_a2589.JPG
It opens a standard size window, no matter how large the photo is, so I'd have to resize each window manually to remove the unused black space...
What I do in this situation is, in thunar (the file browser I use), I right click on the photo, open with, and test all the tools I have installed, see which one is best.
I'll test all I have for you. Gimp: you do not want this.
I work a lot with Gimp, of course, and it's fantastic. But it opens images/windows in quite arbitrary sizes and making the image smaller doesn't make the window smaller. There are no commands like "open image in the largest possible size of the screen" or "show photo smaller and adjust window to image size". Due to the huge amount of possibilities there are almost no simple single-key shortcuts. And, for the simple purpose of photo selection it is too slow/heavy.
Certainly. I knew you use it, but it is not a viewer, not the tool you want now :-)

XV: Yes! You want this one. Oops: resizing can change form factor :-/ May have an option to disable this, has a context menu.
XV opens only one window when I select several windows to open.
Oh. I did not test this.
I must then select from the list which one to show in that window. But I need all images in separate windows...
And the distortions when changing window size makes it completely unusable :-(
There is a button to correct this in the context menu, but it is indeed a nuisance having to use it continuously. But I was hopping there is some configuration to change this "stupid" behaviour.
(In kuickshow changing the window size doesn't influence image size and never the aspect ratio [while changing image size does ajust window size]. I can open two or three photos, type "o" for full pixel size, resize the windows and place them side by side to compare details. Simply by clicking in a window I can drag the image around inside the window... No space is taken by scrollbars. No other program can do that...)
Yeah, I can understand its appeal.
"opi kuickshow" finds it somewhere for 15.4. None for 15.5.

why not just ask the builder (mad_soft) to provide 15.5?
Is ShowImage not the successor to KuickShow? That's what it says in the description. https://www.linux-apps.com/p/1126798/ Seems like what you're looking for. gumb
