:) Hello !

• AFAIK, you can already watch thumb nails in Win Explorer - at least with XP - …

- You can see thumb nails in the file panels from XnView using Total Commander instead, for instance…

Hi Clo :)

I was curious about your proposed solution and did a little snooping around on Ghistler's sites:
TotalcmdWiki: ([url=http://www.ghisler.ch/wiki/index.php/Lister]Lister[/url]) wrote:Extensions

Additional file formats can be supported in Lister using:
  • Lister plugins: Install them in the Lister Configuration dialog, you'll be able to load many non-standard formats in Plugins mode.
  • IrfanView and XnView: Check corresponding option in the Lister Configuration dialog, you'll be able to load graphics other than BMP in Image/Multimedia mode.

In panels

:) Hello Mr. Librarian!

• Indeed TC can display the thumb nails in the panels, provided by XnView (or else).

• Just look at the TC TUTORIAL :wink: Follow Show Menu —> Thumb nail View… from the Interface image-map.

• Also described (for short) in our XnView Manual.
- Nothing to do with the “Lister” view you quote, this is another function…
BTW : The TC-Wiki is not really the good place to get such an info…
- I didn't even add a French section, that sucks, and I've no time to spend at this.

OK, got it: Total Commander Tutorial » Configuration » Thumb-nails » Screenshot

Here's an XP-style screenshot from this forum:

Thank you, thank you, :mrgreen:

... but I'm afraid I don't even deserve the bronze medal, as I wasn't able to come up with a screen grab of Total Commander with integrated XnView. :-|

mmm....
I can already see thumbnails in explorer but only bmp, tiff and Jpg.
I want to see thumbnails for all image formats.
Total commander is not actually what I want, because thumbnails in explorer is visible in open/save dialogs for different programs also.

Sorry for my english :-)
