Hm, I definitely don’t have _any_ previews in the GTK filepicker. I specifically had to open the Files application just this week so I could identify which screenshot I wanted to upload in Firefox.
I guess I have a different bug happening _in addition_ to what the article is talking about. Lovely.
- sli 6y agoThe image preview only works when the file picker is using the list view.
- wander_homer 6y agoNo, the issue is that an application needs to implement the preview widget and add it to the GTK file picker, hence this work needs to be duplicated by every application and of course most applications don't do that. But if the application adds a preview widget it should work regardless of which view mode is active. Edit: Also the new GTK API for file pickers to work better with sandboxing and platform integration, lacks the ability to add preview widgets altogether.
- proactivesvcs 6y agoI have zero thumbnails/previews in some of the GTK filepicker instances, but not others. Signal Desktop shows previews in a pane to the right. Thunderbird shows no previews at all.
