Summary | 0000349: Using thumbnail for FreeCAD document icon | ||||
Description | FreeCAD has a setting to save a thumbnail into the project file when saving the document. But as far as I know, it is not used. It would be nice if this thumbnail could be used as the document icon instead of the generic document icon. On Ubuntu (GNOME desktop), the icon used is the generic one for a text file (see attached pic). | ||||

Or at least, a personalized FreeCAD icon would be nice. I made this one quickly (attached freecad-doc.png icon), I'm sure Yorik could do something far better. |
|
Actually it used to work fine, but indeed I see now that on my system it doesn't work anymore either. The thumbnail is correctly included in the file, and the thumbnailer seems to work OK too. Maybe something changed with mime types or something... |
|
Hm looking better, my thunar got upgraded and several thumbnailers stopped to work (evince, ffmpeg, etc). So the problem might not be in freecad. I'll investigate more. |
|
See forum discussion and werner's comments. It seems it was deactivated. http://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=994 |

We need more information about that. It will IMO heavily depend on the distro and window manager / explorer.... |
|
The according debian packaging files are fixed so that it should work properly again. In case a FreeCAD project doesn't contain a thumbnail the standard icon "freecad-doc.png" will be used, then. For Lucid & Natty the packaging files are updated so that only new binary packages needs to be built. |
