Description Tommi Komulainen 2005-03-25 11:00:41 UTC 
Strangely enough evince creates thumbnails for files but isn't displaying them
itself when browsing for a file to open...

Proposed patch

Hi, this patch adds thubnail preview to the filechooser dialog for pdf and
pixbuf documents. For pdf it also displays Title and n_pages if available.
Maybe the widget spacing and expansion needs some love

What's the status of this? I think jrb mentions you was going to work on a gtk
patch? Should we close/reassign this?

The patch above doesn't use threads and it is pdf-oriented. So I propose the
following patch (updated patch from David Malcolm that also renders thumbnails
in open dialog).

Any progress on this one? It would be quite cool.
Comment 8 Juanjo Marín 2009-09-19 23:12:19 UTC 
Evince shows small thumbnails on the filechooser dialog. I think we can close this bug report.

This is not the case for me in evince 3.8.2 (Fedora 19), should this be reopened?

Strange, can you provide a screenshoot ?
