![]() ![]() View settings are exclusive to the user, however Views can be made public allowing other users of the document management system to use them if you are an Administrator. They can also reset the personal views of other users to a global view of their choice.ĭefault views can be applied to saved searches, virtual folders, cabinets and folders. That's a lot of work when a User has A LOT of Graphics work to already do.Library Administrators can create views and set them as the system default for all users. Under the current circumstances the Gimp User has to click every file name to display a thumbnail, unless it's a reasonably large file, at which time not only does the User have to click the file name, but then they have to click on the Thumbnail area to the right of the file name list to have the thumbnail generated. Either way it's convenient and not in a word list form where if the User has been working on an image and has several variations like "image1.xcf, or png, or jpg. they either "double" click on it to open it in PSP 7.02, or they "right" click on the thumbnail image and choose "Open". When the User sees an image in a thumbnail that they want to work on. Click on it and it opens a built in small explorer window that allows the User to browse through their folders and see sizable thumbnails of images. ![]() I just changed over to Gimp 2.10.24, But in PSP 7.02. under the "File" menu, there is "Browse". I've been using JASC Paint Shop Pro 7.02 since 2000. I find it unimaginable that after all these years that no one has built a Module or Plugin for Gimp to view Thumbnails of our work right in the Gimp Program.Įvery other Graphics program has been doing that for decades. The Gray and Light Themes suck and no one uses them. I had to change the Theme to "System" to see what you were talking about. I don't know who decided on the Themes but in Dark Mode the + sign is indistinguishable from the dark background, and - sign is not much better. That folder will be available for you to use in the File Open dialogue. Navigate to the folder you want and click the the + button. In the File Open dialogue, on the lower, left hand side, are + and - buttons. Clicking File, Open, brings up the "Open image" window, it always defaults to "Recently Used" and list the last files edited to the right, I'd like it to default to a particular folder. If you Gimp is correctly set up, you can use your file explorer in thumbnail view on open images in Gimp from it. Yes, clicking on every image is slow, but opening the dialog in a directory full of complex XCF (or full of JOG on a slow medium/network share) would be even slower. Other tweaks (not much) are documented here.įor 2) no. Not that this doesn't change the default directory when you save things, so adding your favorite directory/directories as a bookmark(s) is still a good idea. And change your Gimp startup directory to the required directory in your shortcut. Replace StartupMode=recent by StartupMode=cwd. This file exists somewhere, on Linux it's ~/.config/gtk-2.0/gtkfilechooser.ini (I can't tell where it is on Windows but I'l sure Rich will come to help). Also in the "Open Image" window, is there a way to have the files shown as thumbnail view instead of list view? Having to click on each file name to see the thumbnail image in the far right of the window is very slow.įor 1) find your gtkfilechooser.ini.

I go in and delete every now and again, let Gimp build up again as I open images. In linux thumbnails are stored in the directory ~/.thumbnails/normal which can grow to a large size.

You can do a similar thing in linux with the. Until you save else-where for that session. This will open the image when gimp starts, and any subsequent 'opens' will go to this directory 'as-the-last-used'. You can get around it (sort of) by appending an image to the Gimp start up command in a shortcut. AFAIK no definitive way to change the default open directory from recently used. ![]()
