Once you have converted an original raster image into a smaller (i.e. more compressed) jpeg image you have thrown away some pixels. Post-processing can't put these missing pixels back. I think the gwenview faded display phenomenon you describe here is unlikely to be the result of your conversion, since feh displays it without any fading. It may be caused by gwenview scaling the image to a different size, to make it fit in the gwenview window, unlike feh which will open it in its original size whether its full size dimensions fit in your PC monitor or not. You can check the gwenview % reduction/increase shown at the bottom right hand corner and change this to 100% to see if it makes any odds. In the gwenview settings you can select what the default 'Zoom Mode' is, if indeed this is the cause of the faded image display. Another thing perhaps related could be the anti-aliasing gwenview applies to fit the image in the window aperture and how this interacts with the image elements and the resolution of your monitor - you should be able to check this if you change the zoom level. https://photo.stackexchange.com/questions/24512/what-is-aliasing-and-anti-aliasing On the same PC/monitor with the same display dimensions for an image gwenview (with its default settings) and feh ought to produce the same output - at least they do so here. --nextPart4134382.ejJDZkT8p0 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
