Thanks again for the new thumbnail view. Sorry if it sounds like I'm being picky, this is definitely the best collection program out there but since you are willing to listen to our suggestions, here is my wish list:

My top request: have the scrollbar scroll the thumbnails (or go one row at a time) rather than jumping a whole page.

Allow customizations in the thumbnail view for things like:

1. How many lines to display for the text. Text that previously displayed on two lines is cut off now.

2. The ability to turn off the grid lines

3. The ability to set the background color

4. When there isn't enough to fill the page have the thumbnails start at the top rather than the middle of the page

Since this is a brand new thumbnail view, I'm sure you already thought about some of these things...

Thanks,
Steve

Thank you Steve,

The new thumbnail is really different from previos. I had to change it because the previous was really too slow in loading if you have a big database of games (more for example than 500).

I will try to make all suggestion you provide.

Ale

I'm not happy with the new thumbnail look. it looks line the extreme movie manager now and i thought the game manager thumbnails view was better. stevep mentions in #4 above about the thumbnails in the middle of the screen. I tried the movie manager thought that looked really strange there also

Hello,

I have switch to this new Thumbnail because of Speed, but seem that the tests made by Steve on more than 1000 games show these results:

1067 games total
972 games with covers

Version 1.0.1.2 takes 11 seconds
Version 1.0.1.3 takes 21 seconds

So, if this will be confirmed also by my tests I think I will revert back to previous thumbnail...

The only problem, at this time, is that the images are "stretched"

Ale
