I've lost previews in the preview pane

Post by rnmerchant »

I normally use a layout - likely like everyone else - with a small 'file/directory' pane, small 'preview' pane, and big window with all the file thumbnails. Layout 3 format.

Somehow the preview pane has lost the preview. It has tabs for "info", "categories", and "category sets", but no option for a small preview. I see that if you "x" (close) one of those tabs they disappear (?forever) and there is no obvious way to bring the tab back into that pane/window (right click and etc don't do anything).

As my preview option has disappeared, in the absence of any knowledge, I'm guessing that I must have accidently "x'd" the preview. How can I bring it back? Seems like it should be somewhere in the settings but I cannot figure that out.

I guess if I can bring it back I should save my preferences in one of the layout A,B,C... options. I'll know better next time.

Thanks for your help.
