UI improvement: To shade filenames when using Thumbnails view

Post by John_C »

Open "Configuration > Styles" and make sure the only clipboard marker is "Dimmed icons".

Select an image file in the "Details with Thumbnails" view and press Ctrl-X. You will see that its filename and other text (such as size) is now dimmed.

Switch to the "Thumbnails" view. You will see that the filename is not dimmed.

Since the thumbnail is never dimmed, you will have no evidentce that the file has been marked to be cut. (Unless you will use colored lines instead of dimming, which is my personal choice.)

Either tick Configuration | Preview | Thumbnails | Show file icon on thumbnail, or tick Configuration | Colors and Styles | Styles | Clipboard Markers | Colored lines.

I agree something essential like getting feedback from cutting should be turned on by default and be similar to what ppl are used to which is dimmed out thumbnail. I was very baffled that this wasnt the case and came to find answers from these forums.

I agree. I will turn on "Show file icon on thumbnail" by default.
