            Bug ID: 447571
           Summary: Flexible or larger thumbnail size AND per folder view
                    settings
           Product: dolphin
           Version: 21.12.0
          Platform: unspecified
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: view-engine: general
          Assignee: dolphin-bugs-null at kde.org

  Target Milestone: ---

Since the early dawn of Dolphin, technology has advanced rapidly: Displays have
higher resolutions and 4K became a standard. Especially for media designers a
quick overview of images in adequate resolution is necessary. Unfortunately,
256x256 as a maximum preview size (as given in Dolphin as to date) for
thumbnails seldomly satisfies.

Yes, there are image viewers (gwenview etc) that can be used to see larger
thumbnails, but imagine the use case of grandma trying to sort its private
picture library. She has to switch back and forth between Dolphin and Gwenview,
which is highly disrupting the workflow and not quite intuitive.

So, my feature request would be
A) Add an option to select the maximum thumbnail zoom size OR at least scale up
to 512x512 for good measure
and
B) Add an option to save views per folder. Meaning: Have on default view (grid
layout and thumbnail size), but when browsing pictures, make Dolphin remember
the higher thumbnail preview size.
