Help Page: Image & Thumbnail Browser
When viewing an image in the Image & Thumbnail Browser, you can switch to [T]humbnail mode
- a page of thumbnails will be displayed starting with the image you were viewing*
(* assuming there are enough thumbnails to fill more than one page, otherwise the one page of thumbnails will contain all the images in the current folder) - left-click on any thumbnail to view the full size image
- you can browse through pages of thumbnails the same way you browse through individual images
- you can navigate up and down to other folders on the same drive
- in the Image & Thumbnail Browser, the four arrow keys are very powerful, whether in Image Mode or Thumbnail Mode
- you can browse through an entire drive with just the arrow keys, automatically skipping folders which don't contain images

Resizing the Thumbnails Page
When showing a page of thumbnails, you can resize the window to show more thumbnails per row
- you can resize either by grabbing the window border and dragging or by using [G] and Ctrl-[G]
- this will cause MMP to immediately refresh the thumbnails to draw as many per row as possible, and as many columns as possible
- because of this redrawing, it is preferable to not resize by dragging the window border
- [G] will recalculate the window size required to accommodate another column and another row of thumbnails
- Ctrl-[G] will recalculate the window size required to reduce the display by one column and one row of thumbnails
- resizing the window and redrawing the thumbnails is quicker using [G] and Ctrl-[G]
- once you have reached the maximum number of rows (with [M] or [G]), subsequently pressing [G] will expand the number of columns width-ways until the maximum window size is reached
