Bug ID: 495637
Summary: Permit disabling previews at sizes below a threshold
and/or in views
Classification: Applications
Product: dolphin
Version: 24.08.2
Platform: Fedora RPMs
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: view-engine: details mode
Assignee: dolphin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: 4wy78...@rokejulianlockhart.addy.io
CC: kfm-de...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
-------
Currently, I have my preview preferences set as [this
screenshot](https://discuss-cdn.kde.org/uploads/default/original/2X/3/32dea4b70f46721f931f145a8ee7fbd2a10a0ad0.png)
depicts - all are enabled.
Although I’d like having a simple toggle to enable or disable all of them,
having all options individually enabled works incredibly well in the Icons
view. However, it’s actually an annoyance in Compact and Details, because the
icons which it replaces would alternatively provide a more obvious distinction
between file types than the incredibly small - and consequently useless -
previews do.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
------------------
1. Invoke `dolphin`.
2. Access the "Configure" entry of its menu bar.
3. Access the "Configure Dolphin..."-labelled context menu entry.
4. Access the "Interface" sidebar tab.
5. Access the "Previews" tab bar tab.
6. Enable all.
7. Close the "Configure" window.
8. Switch to the "Details" view.
9. Configure the "Details" view to render icons at their smallest size (for me,
16 px).
OBSERVED RESULT
---------------
Previews render at 16 pixels of size, which is useless.
EXPECTED RESULT
---------------
I should be able to disable previews for this view at this icon size, so that I
can instead see the icons of the file types (since the previews are too small
to be readable).

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
----------------------
I originally asked whether this was possible to achieve without modifications
to Dolphin's source code at
[`discuss.kde.org`](https://discuss.kde.org/t/can-previews-in-dolphin-be-disabled-when-theyre-too-small-to-be-of-use/24508?u=rokejulianlockhart).
