Ulead Photo Explorer User Guide
Displaying embedded thumbnails in digital camera images
Since many digital cameras can now automatically create thumbnails when taking photos, you can
customize Photo Explorer to just get the thumbnails from the JPEG (Exif ) image files instead of
generating them.
For such images, select the
Use thumbnail from JPEG (Exif ) file
option in the Preferences dialog
box under the
Camera and Exif
category. This will give a considerable improvement in thumbnail
display speed. However, thumbnails created by cameras are fixed in size (160x120) and cannot be
further enlarged. Also, the display quality of the thumbnails may not be as good.
Generating thumbnails
If you have modified images or other media files outside of Photo Explorer, your changes may not
immediately be reflected in the cache files. There may also be unused thumbnails still remaining in
the cache files even after their corresponding files have already been deleted.
To update thumbnails in the cache files, or to clean up cache files by removing thumbnails for non-
existing files, manually regenerate thumbnails for the respective folders. Photo Explorer provides two
ways of regenerating thumbnails:
• Click
View: Regenerate Thumbnails
to recreate
thumbnails for files in the current folder level only.
• Click
View: Scan Tree
to recreate thumbnails for
files in the current folder level and all its
underlying subfolders. (On the contrary, to delete
thumbnails for files in a directory tree, click
View:
Remove Thumbnails
.)
