image preview in file selection

I thought I saw a thread on this before, but couldn't locate it via google or the archives.

With the new file selector, is it possible to have the thumbnail view that the previous file selector had?

How about trying it yourself? :)

Michael,

On Windows version of gimp, there is no thumbnail in the "open" window. If you know a way to have thumnails there, please tell me how, I would like to have it working as on my linux box at home.

Best regards,

Olivier.

I'm not exactly sure what you mean by that. The previous file selector had it by default. I'd be happy to 'try it myself' if I knew how to enable it.

I'm running Gimp 2.2.6 on Windows 2000 and when I open a folder of images, a thumbnail preview appears for each image I select.

I can send a screenshot if desired.

Peace....

Tom

There is no reason why there shouldn't be thumbnails in the file selector on Win32 and indeed a lot of users report that there are thumbnails. So perhaps you should go to the Preferences dialog and enable them again since most likely you just disabled them for whatever reason. They are on by default.

Or get an OS that defines HOME by default (doing this manually on other systems is left as an exercise to the reader :)

What version of gimp are you running on your Linux box that has the thumbnail? When the file selector was changed, it went away, at least on my system. I'm running 2.0.4 here.

Sorry can't help you with windows, I "don't do windows."

Oh, I thought these preferences were related to thumbnails written on disk (like the old time .xvpics or the more recent freedesktop standard or the ones the windows explorer is putting everywhere by default).

So is it possible to have thumbnails in the open window and nothing saved on disk ? I do not care on linux to have thumbnails since my file manager creates some (Rox-Filer), but under windows, it is undesirable.

Best regards,

Olivier.

No, that is not possible. Either you allow GIMP to create and save the thumbnails or you have to use the file chooser dialog w/o thumbnails.
