GPC is used just like another image vizualisation program, called 'GQView'. There are two lists on the left of the main window ; the first one displays every film stored in the current PostgreSQL database ; when you select a film, the second one displays images stored in the directory corresponding to the selected film.

Two little windows can display informations relatives to the current film and the current image.

Main window

The GPC main window is constructed like many other GNOME applications, with a menu bar and a toolbar displaying buttons. These toolbars can be moved to different places by using a 'handle' placed on the left of the bars.

The main area of the GPC window is composed of two lists, and a visualization area containing a notebook with two tabs named "Thumbnails" and "Image" :

In each area, a contextual menu can be displayed by clicking the right button of the mouse, to execute commands faster.
