Newbie - How do I get the preview window back?!

Hi,
I was playing with the layout of the browser, and closed the preview window. It now seems gone forever - I can't find the command to bring it back!
Thanks in advance,
Roy

At a quick look possibly View > Panels > Preview ?

Note: I hardly use the browser options and have given incorrect advice before... :wink:

Thanks!
Now my problem is that the Preview window remains blank when I click on any images in the browser? I have been through every menu item I can see :) The info updates for each image I click on, but the Preview window remains blank.
Cheers,
Roy.

Works for me, have you tried alternative file formats including basic formats like JPEG and PNG?

You might also look at Tools > Settings > Browser > File list -- Custom filter which if you can figure it out might possibly be relevant.

Went through all that prior - I just needed to quit and start again and all is well.
Thanks for your patience :)

Roy.

It doesn't seem obvious that a restart is necessary after enabling that (or presumably other) browser window options...
