I've been exploring this function, and really like -
1. the "scan for missing thumbnails" function;
2. the fact that created thumbnails are embedded, so that when an
image is renamed the thumbnail is not lost.
Now, if I may suggest -
1. This scan, on the modal window in which the choice to select it
is offered (gotten to by menu item Tools > Rebuild all
thumbnails) describe it as "scan for
and create missing
thumbnails". It does not say, at present, that they will created, so
selecting that option, for newcomers, is a bit of a shot in the
dark.
2. In the online manual in which this function is minimally
documented, mention really should be made of this scan option and
how it behaves (that it also creates a thumbnail with one is
missing), AND of the fact that created thumbnails are EMBEDDED in
the main image.
Just a thought, for what it's worth. I'm totally delighted to be
able so easily to create missing thumbnails.
