XYplorer 14.5 thumbnails not showing whole image

XYplorer 14.5 thumbnails not showing whole image. How to correct?
Thumbnails will not show the whole image. The top and bottom can be missing. See link for examples.

See the link above. It is now fixed.
The issue is fixed by going to Tools> Configuration> Thumbnails
Change the Thumbnail widths and heights to some other value and click the OK button then go back and change back to what you want.

Oh my goodness! Grumpy baby is cuuuute!

And to add to that, that bouncing elephant is great! You should keep that page up hahaha!

(Yep, completely unrelated but glad you found the setting to change that.)

Update 1-18-15
The problem is back and when I tried what I thought was the solution, no changed occurred this time.

Get this script
http://www.xyplorer.com/xyfc/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=12257
Start it, and from the menu select the option to refresh the current folder.

Kind of curious but have you tried taking a look at how the thumbnails look in Explorer? Just checking to make sure at least it's not an embedded thumbnail issue.

Is it now exactly the same as before?

If you see this in a different folder, refreshing thumbnails as Stef123 suggested can solve it. (Because XY would be displaying thumbs cached earlier)

Else, maybe you ticked Tools> Configuration> Thumbnails> Zoom To Fill.

Update 1-18-15

If you're around for a bit, you'll soon find out for yourself that an update specification like this can become useless if there's more than one update per day, which happens quite often around here.
So to be clear you'd rather use the version number (e.g. 14.80.0204).

Hello
I seemed to have stumbled onto the solution again.... No additional change in the Configuration> Thumbnail screen.
I instead opened the Tools> Open Configuration File file (in Notepad, searched on thumbnails and cache)

I then changed Cache=1 to Cache=0
Saved then Closed the folder and re-opened.

I then viewed the thumbnails and they are what you see in the link labeled All Fixed at the bottom of the page looking as they should. http://davidswebsite.com/xyplorer/thumbnails.html
I wonder if the Configuration File does not update your settings sometimes in the graphical Configuration screen??

Maybe you could've just tried this.

If you see this in a different folder, refreshing thumbnails as Stef123 suggested can solve it. (Because XY would be displaying thumbs cached earlier)

[Stef123]

I suggested it because I suffer the same problem. Cannot disable the cache, XY is too slow for comfortable browsing w/o cache. However, various cache issues kept me struggling - until Ken's Maintenance script came around. Couldn't possibly do without it. I even believe it should be bundled with XY by default.

[davidhelp]

I do not know how to use that maintenance script.
What are the steps in using it?

[bdeshi]

This is the latest version of Thumbnail Maintenance at this time >>> http://www.xyplorer.com/xyfc/viewtopic. ... 08#p116863
Download the zip from the link.
Now in XY, navigate to where it was downloaded and select the zip file. Then copy-paste the following code in the addressbar and press ENTER:

Code: Select all

::zip_extract("<curitem>","<xyscripts>\");

A file copy progress dialog will popup. Overwrite any file if you're asked to.
After that's finished, enter the following code again in the addressbar

Code: Select all

::if (exists("<xyscripts>\ThumbnailMaintenance.xys")==1) {snippet "Snip: CTB 1<crlf>  <crlf>Action<crlf>  NewUserButton<crlf>Name<crlf>  ThumbnailMaintenance<crlf>Icon<crlf>  :viewthumbs<crlf>ScriptL<crlf>  load ""ThumbnailMaintenance"";<crlf>ScriptR<crlf>  #500;<crlf>FireClick<crlf>  0<crlf>";$ctb=replace(gettoken(toolbar(),-1,","),"ctb"); $var=7;while($var>=0){ctbstate($var%2,$ctb);wait 100;$var--}} else {end 1, "Cannot find ThumbnailMaintenance.xys"}

And you'll find a new button added to the toolbar. Click it, a menu will popup with just about everything you can want to manage XY thumbnails.

[davidhelp]

Thanks for the script and the how to. The button is now added to the folder.
Your brain must be scrambled by thinking like this below or at least cause your hair to be frizzy... : )

::if (exists("<xyscripts>\ThumbnailMaintenance.xys")==1) {snippet "Snip: CTB 1<crlf> <crlf>Action<crlf> NewUserButton<crlf>Name<crlf> ThumbnailMaintenance<crlf>Icon<crlf> :viewthumbs<crlf>ScriptL<crlf> load ""ThumbnailMaintenance"";<crlf>ScriptR<crlf> #500;<crlf>FireClick<crlf> 0<crlf>";$ctb=replace(gettoken(toolbar(),-1,","),"ctb"); $var=7;while($var>=0){ctbstate($var%2,$ctb);wait 100;$var--}} else {end 1, "Cannot find ThumbnailMaintenance.xys"}

[bdeshi]

glad to help!

The snippet part looks complex but I just created the button first, then copied it's "snippetized" form and then used this tiny script to generate a one-liner (it replaces all linebreaks with their stringified represantations):

Code: Select all

text replace(<<<#>>>>>>>
[SNIPPET PASTED HERE]#>>>>>>>,"<crlf>",'<crlf>');

The latter part which makes the added button blink was more difficult (relatively) and took longer to write, but the result might have gone unseen. (hey, did you notice the blinking effect? )
