I'm glad you like it\nYou having no thumbnails is weird though. I'll debug this next week on a test system to make sure thumbnails work reliably. I'll be travelling over the weekend.\nThe file chooser should remember your last choice already btw.\n\nAnother thing I consider is having some kind of preview panel that you can activate. This is especially useful for gimp, for example, when selecting an image\n\n* * *",
