Aha! I see now.

...for me is rather ok because I look mostly at the file names which are highlighted with a different color (blue) which is quite different from the dark color of the non-selected thumbs.

Hmmmm...

In fact, I kinda support this. Sometimes, especially if the thumbs are small, isn't so visible. And I think that besides of pen width it should be also configurable the pen color. Hence something like this:

Code: Select all

Selected thumbnail:
---------------------------
  Border Width [___1]
  Border Color [ "Orange" v]
