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
