Image thumbnails when browsing Android phone (Samsung S22 Ultra) via USB

[zupermario]

Hello,

I'm wondering if it's possible to enable image thumbnails when browsing folders on an Android phone (specifically a Samsung S22 Ultra) connected via USB in Total Commander.

I'm aware that the initial generation of thumbnails may be slow, since Total Commander would likely need to download each image at least once to generate a preview. However, once cached, the thumbnail previews should make image file management much smoother and more efficient.

I also tried using the native Android version of Total Commander, but the thumbnails are very small and there doesn't seem to be a way to increase their size.

Any suggestions or workarounds would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance.

When accessing your phone via built-in Windows functions (virtual folders), you will get thumbnails, but only with the Explorer method - only the Explorer can access the files directly. So make sure the Explorer method is enabled via menu Configuration - Options - Thumbnails.

Regarding Total Commander for Android, you can increase the line height and the image width via main menu - configure - font and color.
