Image thumbnails

[artyomn]

I think it would be a good improvement to add an option to show image files' thumbnails instead of type icon.

Hi, it's a nice idea but don't you think it will be heavy on the library side?

Because the main motive is to choose directory/file as quick as possible and if we even use some lazy-loading image libraries like Glide it'll still cause some lag on low-end devices (I think). Do let me know what you think about this.

I think some lag may be, but it shouldn't be essential. As of my experience with Glide it is very well optimized (I've done a GridView with about 300 images loaded with Glide - and it scrolls absolutely smoothly (even if you scroll fast) on 3 years old Nexus 5). Probably it may be done configurable - some option to show thumbnails or just icons. I've thought about this idea (image thumbnails) because image file names usually have no sense for user but previews have.

True, I'll try to include Glide in the project and implement the thumbnails asap. Thanks for your view on this feature.
