GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 385514
File size limit of images may not be sufficient
Last modified: 2008-04-11 15:08:29 UTC
Nautilus can be told not to thumbnail images bigger than a given size, but I here have a 6.0Mb compressed tif image that is 8419 x 11920 pixels large, so it hangs the thumbnailer a lot (it requires nearly 300Mb of uncompressed data). So adding an image size constraint could prevent this. Now go explaining the user why this 6.0Mb can't be thumbnailed whereas that of 10Mb can... Other information:
gtk+ scaling needs to be fixed. See bug 80925. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 80925 ***
