On my system, with konqueror with KDE 4, I click on an image and it opens in the konqueror window, and I am pretty sure that is the default.
You're absolutely right, I stand corrected. It's Dolphin that is a bit awkward, not Konqueror. I'd tried switching to Dolphin as that was the new default.
It's what you're used too. The old Konqi is meant to be a swiss army knife - doing lots of things reasonably well. Dolphin aims to be a Filemanager and do THAT really really well, leaving other things to other apps. I moved over to dolphin but you triggered me to try Konqi again. I must say the 'old way' still feels nice and familiar. Wouldn't be able to say what is more useful, except that the embedded gwenview doesn't have all the modification options etc etc that are in the full one. Then again, if you embed everything in Konqi, what's the point of having window management :D
PDFs by default don't, but it takes about 5 seconds to change. In konqueror -> settings -> configure konqueror -> file management -> file associations, search for pdf, and select the "embedding" tab, and select "show file in embedded viewer". For images, just click on the "image" group and select "show file in embedded viewer". If a particular image file type is not working, make sure its "embedding" settings is set to "Use settings for the 'image' group".
Thanks!
