On the View menu, choose Thumbnails.
And for folders containing images, I think there is also a Filmstrip option.
I recently upgraded my PC and as part of this have changed from Win2k to Win XP.
My question relates to being able to preview images within Windows Explorer, with Win2k these could be thumbnail previewed as the directory was browsed without having to open the file with a viewer . The Win2k configuration made renaming the default (camera generated) names of any images easier.
Is there a configuration option that can be used to enable this within XP ?
Thanks for any assistance,
Bob

Thanks for the advice,
I prefer the Win2k version of this functionailty though, looks like its been superseded
Thanks again,

In what way superceded? Windows Explorer shows you thumbnails/tiles of images in XP too.
This maybe a configuration option. Within Win2k the images could be viewed from the View - Details view.
I note that there is a View - Choose Details option, is it part of this ?

What's wrong with the "View->thumbnails" option? Is that different to Win2k?
Essentially, it is similar. The main difference is that you could see the image and file sizes from the 'details' columns at the same time as previewing the thumbnail.

Hover the mouse over the thumbnail?Originally Posted by Bob
Are you displaying the folder tree in the left pane of the window? Turn that off (click on the Folders button in the toolbar) and the pane changes to show various common functions for the file, and down the bottom -- Details
