Interpolate Image
Whether the image should be interpolated on zoom-out. This leads to better quality but is somewhat slower than non-interpolated images.

Whether the metadata list in the properties dialog should have its own page.
If activated, the detailed metadata list in the properties dialog will be moved to its own page in the dialog. This should make the dialog more usable on smaller screens, e.g. as used by netbooks. If disabled, the widget will be embedded on the "Metadata" page.
