I really would love to have a kind of preview for already thumbnailed files on mouse-over, with information like zoomed thumbnail and some meta data.]]> Fri, 29 Feb 2008 12:02:07 +0000 Comment from markba "an icon view for the fileselectors would be useful"

Workflow would be greatly improved. If I visually see the thumbnail image in a directory full of images, I make my selection and continue.
Like a previous comment (as it is now, if you don't know the filename, you need to open the directory in nautilus and reference the image filename)

Of course a option to turn on/off this feature also.

Thanks :-)]]> Fri, 29 Feb 2008 20:38:35 +0000 Comment from rawsausage Fri, 29 Feb 2008 22:44:48 +0000 Comment from azag Sat, 01 Mar 2008 02:29:10 +0000 Comment from anselme Sun, 02 Mar 2008 04:34:14 +0000 Comment from pescez Sun, 02 Mar 2008 18:24:26 +0000 Comment from shadowber Mon, 03 Mar 2008 21:42:52 +0000 Comment from jarreboum Mon, 03 Mar 2008 23:19:17 +0000 Comment from gaspard.leon
example of classic work-flow problems:

1. Open GIMP
2. Open file from the menu
3. Find folder with > 100 images...
4. even with the side-preview turned on it's pointless, you have to scroll through each image to "preview" it.
5. no thumbnail view!

or even:

1. install ubuntu
2. marvel in actual thumbnails of documents etc in nautilus
3. use open file dialog
4. cry

Agreed, it is TERRIBLE. I wish they'd use a subset of Nautilus. I've read all their reasons for it and don't agree at all.]]> Thu, 30 Oct 2008 00:25:00 +0000
