Thumbnail size matters ( temp workaround included )

Post by dbhome »

Hi

what I would like is to be able to do is set the thumbnail size

below is a reg file example that does this to 64x64 42 thumbs to a page but if used the thumbnails need to be rebuilt with existing projects but it would be nice to not need to edit the registry to do this

(Please note if you use this please backup your registry first better safe than sorry ;) )

-----------------------------------------CUT----------------------------------------

REGEDIT4

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\VOWSoft\PicaLoader\BROWSER]
"PICPERPAGE"=dword:0000002a
"THUMBWIDTH"=dword:00000040
"THUMBHEIGHT"=dword:00000040

-----------------------------------------CUT----------------------------------------

copy and paste into a text file name it thumb.txt and save then after saving rename it to thumb.reg click OK when asked if its OK double click the file and start pica loader (note all new projects will be fine but any existing one you will need to rebuild the thumbnails with project/database/rebuild thumbnails option first or else you'll only see blank thumbnails

P.S. this will save you alot of space with large projects because the thumbnail database will be alot smaller than with the default settings :)
