Then I click another tab in the TC same panel for a quick look at another (non-thumb) folder. Upon returning to the original (thumbs) panel guess what? TC wipes the existing thumbs and re-renders them from scratch (the drive light on the image drive flickers frantically), so I have to wait yet again for the thumbs to rebuild. This behavior is so unproductive as make the TC thumbnail view in heavily populated image folders essentially useless for any productive interaction, an incredible aggravation and inconvenience for me.
The images are on an entirely separate drive from the TC cache. I successfully compact the thumbnail database regularly.
Isn't the thumb caching supposed to display the thumbs quickly, without having to access the files themselves?
Or maybe I don't understand how the caching is supposed to work?
For instance:
- -Are folder thumbs cached?
-Are all rendering methods cached?
-Do all methods render, whether a previous method has already rendered?
-Is there a way to instruct TC what order to render thumbs in (which method first, which files first?)
-How do I tell TC to render all thumbs whether I have scrolled to them or not? It appears to wait until I scroll the panel, under any and all conditions.
-Why does TC always re-render previously rendered thumbs when I switch back to a thumbed tab?
Here is my thumbs setup. Any advice to speed up TC's display of thumbs would be greatly appreciated!
