Using the thumbnailer from the SDK is a relatively painless process as far as the photo view and events view are concerned (a branch implementing this is linked to this bug).
However the album view makes use of a special thumbnail size (360) which is bigger than the large thumbnail size that the SDK thumbnailer can generate (256). Scaling up the thumbnails isn't an option due to very noticeable loss of quality. The only possibly solutions seem to be either altering the UI to use the smaller thumbnail size, or altering the SDK thumbnailer to be able to generate this new larger size. The first option requires design input, the second option will make the SDK thumbnailer non-confroming with respect to the Freedesktop thumbnailing standard, which it has been following up until now. ** Branch linked: lp:~amanzi-team/gallery-app/gallery-app-sdk-thumbnailer -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1221968 Title: use libthumbnailer for gallery thumbnails To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gallery-app/+bug/1221968/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
