Learn to install Fotoxx on Ubuntu 24.04, 22.04, or 20.04 Linux. The software is an image management and editing program that focuses on simple and fast operation. Beginners, in particular, should be offered a tool to make working with digital images under Linux much more accessible.
In contrast to programs like Shotwell, no internal database is used, but the existing folder structure is on the data medium, as with gThumb or Geeqie. However, it should be noted that an internal index is created when the program is started for the first time so that metadata can be found more quickly. As long as this indexing runs, images can be viewed but not edited. Whether the program lives up to its reputation “for people who find F-Spot too limited but GIMP too complicated” is something you should try for yourself.
Basic features:
• Image preview (thumbnails) with adjustable size
• Full-screen slide show with keyboard navigation
• View and edit metadata (Exif, IPTC, etc.)
• Create your tags (rating, image description)
• Search by metadata, tags, rating, date, description, filenames
• Batch functions: rename, shrink, export, tags, RAW import
• Histogram
• Sending pictures by email
• Creating CDs or DVDs
• Printout in various standard formats (custom sizes also possible)
• Flexible image editing with unlimited undo/redo steps and fast before/after preview
• Geocoding of the recording location
