i am also using manjaro , btw could you please install libpng , libmng and imagemagick so to get rid of that Unresolved mime type "image/x-mng"

Only imagemagick was missing but still get the following after installing...

org.kde.kdegraphics.gwenview.lib: Unresolved mime type  "image/x-mng"
org.kde.kdegraphics.gwenview.lib: Unresolved raw mime type  "image/x-samsung-srw"

Still i couldnt reproduce same thing on my gwenview , it might be releated of the distro or system you were using ( like missing or old version of libraries )
could you please run konsole and run gwenview with this command

QT_ASSUME_STDERR_HAS_CONSOLE=1 gwenview

like this one and observe its output and let us know that is going on in its debug logs.

In theory everything is up to date as Manjaro is rolling release based on Arch but sometimes they hold packages.

Last line appears each time I try to make it fullscreen.

And i am glad that you are least solve your changing photos while zoomed in problem with shortcuts , i suggest you to create a bug report and ask for a common
next / previous image shortcut for general for following versions.

I can do that. Maybe the , and . keys? They're also < and > so makes the most sense and don't appear to be used by anything else.

Thanks for looking into these.

Assuming the link works, it happens with this one but strangely not with a JPEG I first tried. Open image in Gwenview, press F11 or Ctrl+Shift+F. On my system (AMD 3700X + 6800 XT, FWIW) Gwenview briefly enters fullscreen then goes back to windowed mode within half a second.

I will be glad to at least try to reproduce and find out a possible patch for it, could you please share a way for me to reproduce your both problems ?
( i mean an image that sure cause the problems , please give a link) and each step (without missing any info ) to reproduce ( like click here then here then here )
also have you tried to configure shortcuts for next image to overcome problems about switching one image to other when it is zoomed in ?

There's no option for me to configure shortcuts in Gwenview, either in Gwenview itself or within System Settings. The latter simply shows

Gwenview:
No default shortcuts

It allows adding custom shortcuts but they don't appear to be assigned to anything (list is empty).

Edit: on a fresh system user opening Gwenview shows a "hamburger menu" icon with an option to configure shortcuts. That doesn't appear with my older user. Maybe I should get in the habit of purging configs after major updates.

Edit: after using the slightly non-obvious shortcut of Ctrl+Alt+, I've been able to configure custom shortcuts for next and previous.

It happens if the image is larger than display resolution, otherwise it's OK. Versions 22.04.0 (just updated) and 21.04.3 (an older version I have a package file for). Updating loses the ability to navigate "actual size" images with keyboard again, which is really useful for comparing different versions of design images in place, so I'll revert back to older version.

Ctrl + i

Are you sure this isn't a kernel/Mesa bug?

I'm not sure, no, but downgrading those didn't help, nor has upgrading to latest releases. It started happening immediately after updating to Plasma 5.24 beta, not the kernel or Mesa, so I guess kwin could be triggering some bug elsewhere. So far I haven't found a way to debug when it happens (system is unresponsive to any input and loops the same half second of any playing audio forever).

i couldnt reproduce this on 22.04.0? which version of gwenview you were using ? and could you test it with latest version ?
both ctrl shif f and menu (un)fullscreen working

* gwenview won't (un)fullscreen if the image is zoomed to fit (works if image is actual size.
