Hi Andrew, |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
If I try to copy a file that already exists in the destination folder, I |
| 25 |
do indeed get preview images and some metadata, not a vast expanse of |
| 26 |
nothingness. |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
For example, when copying a jpg the dialog shows thumbnails of the |
| 29 |
source and the destination, and underneath each image the type, size, |
| 30 |
width, height and the date it was last modified. |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
Below that is an input field where an alternative name can be entered, |
| 33 |
which presumably you still have. Finally there are the buttons. |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
As for what triggers the presence/absence of the preview, I have no |
| 36 |
idea. |
