No thumbprints

Why do I not have the option to see thumbprints in file manager.//

All the jpeg files have common scene.

Re: No thumbprints

I think you mean "thumbnails". The old Thumbnails and Filsmtrip views don't
exist anymore. You just click Views and select the icon size you want. Or
hold down the Ctrl key while spinning your mouse wheel. The JPEGS and other
common picture types should appear like thumbnails automatically, not as
generic icons.

Re: No thumbprints

Thanks for that, but I still don't get the "thumbnails".

When I hold down the control key and roll the wheel, the images either
increase or decrease in size, but stay as generic icons.

Re: No thumbprints

Found the problem.

The setting is under tools folder options view, the always show icons was
checked.
