Hi there, is it possible to get thumbnails for the artisteer programme artisteer.com/ to show in DOpus listers? A preview in the viewer would be great too.
Thumnails and previews get shown in windows 7 explorer fine, so maybe possible for DOpus. At the moment I just get a generic icon.
As Artisteer produces a website template, a visual thumbnail would be great to tell which template from which.
Hi, thanks for the reply.
Had a look in the preferences, and found "Use shell image extraction for formats Opus does not understand", ticked to yes, and now I get thumbnails. Great!
But in the viewer pane, no luck, just a lot of numbers. Any ideas on this, or is a plugin needed?
Thanks again.
It's extension is artx, details of the prog are at their website, artisteer.com/ , example file attached in a zip. It makes templates for websites, which being visual, would show up well in the viewer and be useful.
Thanks. Example.zip (198 KB)
I've installed Artisteer in a VM, and I see what's happening.
It only installs a thumbnail handler, which is why Opus only shows the thumbnails.
The reason Explorer shows something in the preview pane is that if there isn't a viewer for a filetype, Explorer will show the file's thumbnail there instead (for some file types). Opus doesn't show thumbnails in the viewer.
Someone could write a plugin (an .artx file is really a zip archive, and there's a JPG thumbnail inside, so it's a pretty simple format), but as things are now there isn't a simple setting you can change to make it appear in the viewer, no.
