gThumb Image Viewer como alternativa Linux ao Windows Photo Gallery
Atualizado em
Nossa avaliação
gThumb is a solid replacement for Windows Photo Gallery, especially for users who want a straightforward tool to view, organize, and lightly edit photos on Linux. It handles common formats, supports metadata and keyword tagging, offers batch operations, and lets you browse by folder or catalog. The slideshow, basic editing (crop, color adjustments), and camera import features cover most typical use cases. While it lacks rating via stars or labels and red-eye removal, its catalog system and GNOME integration make it reliable for personal photo management. Best suited for casual to intermediate users.

O que funciona igual
- Both support viewing JPEG, PNG, and RAW images with metadata (EXIF, IPTC, XMP)
- Offer thumbnail browsing, folder navigation, and basic file operations (copy, move, delete)
- Include basic editing: crop, rotate, resize, and adjust brightness/contrast
- Provide full-screen slideshow playback with timing options
- Allow keyword tagging and searching within image collections
O que muda
- gThumb uses catalogs instead of date-based albums; no automatic timeline view by default
- No star rating or color label system for sorting images by quality
- Missing red-eye correction and exposure adjustment tools found in Windows Photo Gallery
- No built-in face recognition or people tagging
- Import from camera is manual via file browser, not guided import wizard
Abrindo seus arquivos do Windows Photo Gallery
gThumb can open JPEG, PNG, and other standard image formats used by Windows Photo Gallery without issue. It reads embedded metadata including keywords and comments, so tagged images retain that info. However, Windows Photo Gallery's proprietary library database (.wpg files) isn't supported—metadata stored only in that database would be lost unless exported first. If images were tagged directly in the files (XMP/IPTC), gThumb will display them. For full compatibility, ensure metadata was written to the image files themselves before switching.

- Install gThumb via your distribution's package manager or Flathub
