Hi,
Following on from this thread:
http://newsgroup.xnview.com/viewtopic.php?t=11735
I would really really like to be able to control what image the folder uses as a thumbnail image, could we have an option to make XnView do what Windows Explorer does in that if there's an image in the folder called Folder.jpg it uses that as the folder thumbnail image?
Cheers,
Simon.

Could you try to disabled thumbnail column in option/File list/Folder?

Hi there,
Sorry I don't understand what you mean? I want the folders to show in thumbnail view, disabling that option means I can't see them. It would be good to be able to choose what image is used.
Simon.

If I do that it doesn't show any images on the folder thumbnail.

I don't understand why unchecking this option would allow to display a specific image for the folder...
Instead, XnView should check whether there is an image called "folder.jpg" in the folder and use it in priority to any other image(s) (including '4 in 1')...
when 'Show as thumbnails' is checked, of course.
