Why?!? I mean, sure, you probably want to filter the list and exclude any files that gwenview can't display anyway (completely reasonable for a good user experience) and determining the type by inspecting the content is a lot more reliable than by filename extension, but if that means I have to wait for the program until it read the beginning of 10k files, I would prefer a file name based filter (which works in >99% of the cases too and would be much faster). Another alternative would be to at least cache the result of the file inspection (so that one has to wait only the first time an image has to be inspected). But honestly, I am not sure it is a good idea to throw 'Caching' at such a simple problem, even if the chance of a broken cache is so unlikely. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
