Replacing thumbnails with companion

Post by Pavlov »

Hi all,

Since MP has one of the best databases out there, i'm using XnView MP for previewing my 3d objects too.
By the way i must tag both the LWOs (3d object) and their thumbnails in order to see them correctly, since XnView cannot create a thumbnail for the LWO itself - see image below.

I would love to filter the list and see only the LWO files, but i would need to assign them the jpg (which has same name of the LWO) as a thumbnail. I tried the "companion" file thing, where i've set LWO as master and JPG as companion, but nothing happens. I also tried the opposite but again nothing happens.

Is there a real way to force XnView to replace the LWO thumbnails with the JPG that has same name ?

Thanks,
Paolo
