New page

= Gwenview User Research Profile =

Gwenview makes it easy to quickly view an image, browse your picture folders and perform simple image manipulations.

== Who is the application for? ==

* "Single shot users" (suggestion for a better term?): users who want to quickly view an image from a website or an email.
* Occasional photographers

=== Who is the application ''not'' for ===

* Professional photographers
* Digital artists

=== Sample User Profiles ===

User Profile 1: For each group of users identified (or primary groups, or particularly special groups if many groups are defined), write a description of that user's characteristics based on a real user you know.

== What kinds of tasks will they complete ==

* Browse images organized in folders
* Import images from a digital camera
* Perform basic manipulations:
* rotating
* cropping
* resizing
* red eye reduction
* straightening
* adjusting brightness and contrast (providing a "magic" button would be nice)
* View image in fullscreen and start a slideshow
* Print one or several images at a time
* Start an external image editor for more advanced image manipulations

=== (What kinds of functionality will the application ''not'' support) ===

* Advanced image edition
* Support for 16 bit pictures

=== Sample Use Scenarios and Cases ===

Use Scenario 1: For each task identified (or major tasks, or particularly special tasks if many tasks are defined), write a description of how that user would accomplish the task ''independent'' of how they would complete it within the application.

Use Case 1: If a use scenario has been implemented, include a matching use case which describes how the task use scenario can be completed in the application. There may be branching or multiple ways to complete the task, and this is a good way to document it.

== Environment Conditions & Requirements ==

* List of environmental conditions for the user or the application to consider
* For example, an Internet-capable application would require an Internet connection
