Subject: [trinity-users] Limited picture size (previews in Konqueror, kview)?
Hello all,
I'm running Trinity (latest stable) on openSuSE 12.3. In Konqueror (file
management). It seems I can get previews for "smaller" pictures (up to at
least 4896x3264 pixels), but not for larger ones (7216x5412).
Gimp loads these, kview does not, neither can Gwenview. However, if I load
the pictures in the Ristretto Image Viewer (that obviously creates thumbnails
for it's own use), then refresh in Konqueror, I get the previews.
So I guess there is some limit with the "engine" used for picture viewers in
Trinity? I must check, but I think it worked OK with the KDE 3 from
openSuSE, maybe I'm wrong.
Note that I _did _ check the settings in configure-konqueror - Previews &
Meta-Data and set the maximum file size at 100MB, to test (the files are
around 5 MB jpg), it did not change anything,
Thierry

I'm not 100% sure, but if I remember well, most file managers with previews does not
show thumbnails previews of very large files, to make sure your computer doesn't stall
if you enter in a folder full of very large pictures files.
For me, previews works well in Dolphin and Konqueror, but with its side-bar showing
information on pictures, Dolphin is more convenient for picture viewing.
Is it possible that this setting only changes after a logout/login?
Have a nice day!
