Jake1976 Posted March 2, 2023 Share Posted March 2, 2023 Does anyone know how to update the file preview that shows when you browse to open a file? Mine is not updating automatically. Jacob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glennw Posted March 2, 2023 Share Posted March 2, 2023 I believe that the thumbnail images are only created once automatically - on the first save (as long as that option is toggled on in Preferences). You can create a custom thumbnail image manually (to a saved plan). Create the view you want to save as a thumbnail (2D or 3D) and then go File>Save Thumbnail Image.

Jake1976 Posted March 2, 2023 Author Share Posted March 2, 2023 Ok, thanks. Am I alone in thinking that this should update at each save? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBCooper Posted March 2, 2023 Share Posted March 2, 2023 Quote Am I alone in thinking that this should update at each save? The way it works now is the preview is based on whatever view you have open the first time you save which is not usually what I want to see for my preview. I save all the time and I certainly don't want whatever view I happen to be in to be the new preview. So if you wanted Chief to do something different, they would probably have to let us choose what view we want used as the preview and then they would have to update it every time we save. So I just set up the view I want and use "save thumbnail image". Once the plan is fairly stable, I never bother to update it. If you want to do this all the time, you could probably setup a hotkey. Also, if you want better looking thumbnails, go into your preferences and choose "large". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
