            Bug ID: 466871
           Summary: unable to lower preview size limit below 1MiB
                    (insufficient precision)
    Classification: Applications
           Product: dolphin
           Version: 22.12.3
          Platform: Archlinux
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: dolphin-bugs-null at kde.org
          Reporter: kde at scheimong.net
                CC: kfm-devel at kde.org
  Target Milestone: ---

In Dolphin > Configure > General > Previews, there is an option for "Skip
previews for remote files above", where the user can specify a size limit.
However it seems like the minimum increment (and therefore the minimum size) is
1MiB, which in my opinion is insufficient precision for many remote
connections.

I for example own several VPSes on another continent over not-so-fast
connections, so I actually want to set this value to something like 50KiB. But
currently this is not possible, at least not on the GUI. It's either 1MiB or no
previews at all.

Ideally these dialogs can accept arbitrary units. Maybe have two fields instead
of one (first accepts a number, second accepts a unit)?
