Tom let me know that the popular BBFileScout file manager has been updated yet again. Last week we mentioned that they added image thumbnails but this week they added a update that really rounds out that feature. You can now select for thumbnails to be two sizes larger so they are easier to see along with the ability to cache the thumbnails so they do not need to be regenerated every time. This makes things much faster the next time you check out the directory!

BB0001-00 BB0001-01

From the change log:

  • Enhanced Thumbnail handing & loading performance
  • New Options:
    • Thumbnail scale factor (default 2x) – This Choice is only enabled, if you have checked ‘Show Thumbnails for Images’.
      • 1x – The thumbnails will have the same height as the selected font
      • 2x – The thumbnails will have the double font height
      • 4x – The thumbnails will have the 4 times font height
    • Thumbnail-Store Directory (default EMPTY)
  • Key short cut Help Popup Dialogs [select from the menu 'Key short cut' to see all current available key short cuts with a description]

As a reminder, BBFileScout is a free, donation-ware application where the developer asks that you donate as much as you feel the application is worth, at this link. You can download it OTA here.

    Absolutely awesome.
    I can think of a couple of major software companies who could learn a thing or two from this guy’s response to customer feedback. Yes, one begins with M.
