Five thumbnails per row in the released client

Use the zoom slider above the file list to change how many thumbnails appear per row, switching between larger previews and denser browsing.

The thumbnail size controls how much detail you can see and how many images fit on screen at once.

Steps

  1. Open a folder or result list.
  2. Find the zoom slider in the middle of the workspace header.
  3. Drag left for fewer columns and larger thumbnails.
  4. Drag right for more columns and smaller thumbnails.
  5. You can also click the magnifying-glass buttons on either side to adjust one step at a time.

The list rearranges immediately; no new search or database refresh is required.

This example changes the same eight images from five to three columns. Larger previews require scrolling to see the remaining content; the source files are unchanged.

When to Use Larger Thumbnails

Use larger thumbnails when you need to check facial expressions, product details, text screenshots, image defects, or subtle composition differences.

When to Use Smaller Thumbnails

Use smaller thumbnails when you need to browse many results, compare color direction, or quickly find a rough candidate.

Common Cases

  • If thumbnails feel too crowded, increase the size.
  • If the list is empty, check the selected folder and clear restrictive filters.
  • Layout changes affect browsing only; they do not change source files.
