Larger thumbnails than 'Extra Large Thumbnails'

Post by Oblomov228 »

Hello,

I've activated 'thumbnail_fill' and increased 'extra_large_thumbnail_size', as documented in
https://www.voidtools.com/support/everything/ini/

However, the end result is an enormous loss in quality, am I doing something wrong?

Kind regards,
...

Normally Everything will load thumbnails as 256x256.

Please set the thumbnail_load_size ini setting to load larger thumbnails:
  • In Everything, type in the following search and press ENTER:
    /thumbnail_load_size=1024
  • If successful, you should see thumbnail_load_size=1024 in the statusbar for a few seconds.
  • Please press F5 to update any previously loaded thumbnails.
1024 is the highest supported value.
Please be aware each thumbnail will use 4MB of RAM (1024x1024x32bit).


You may also like to set the maximum thumbnail size:
(This will allow you to use Ctrl+Mouse wheel to change the thumbnail size to 1024)
  • In Everything, type in the following search and press ENTER:
    /max_thumbnail_size=1024
  • If successful, you should see max_thumbnail_size=1024 in the statusbar for a few seconds.
