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,

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! -Alexandre
