How can I see a preview of an image like in CS5?

ok I open a folder to find an image and have no clue which one I want;  used to be I could click on an image and there would be a little preview of it at the bottom so I know what it is,  can't figure out how to do this in CS6,  I use it constantly so I need to know how to do it..  And no I am not talking about the bridge or mini bridge.  I want to be able to see an image while I am in "open" in the open window.  anyone know how to get this to work or if it doesn't, I am not gonna be happy lol.

It's gone. But the free SageThumbs adds previews back to the File Open windows. Note though that as installed it will only produce previews for files up to 20MB. You change this in Options. I have mine set at 80MB and as you can see below there is one preview missing - that file is 94MB.

    Nah. Raw support is version specific and that extends to Bridge as well. Older versions simply won't handle new cameras. If this is important to you, you will have to use Bridge CC.

  • How can i see the previews of a folder's images from the Thumbnail View?

    I mean, in windows XP if you set the Thumbnail View, inside the icon of the folder you can see the preview of the images inside ( like this http://mowd.idv.tw/LonghornPDC/folder_preview.JPG )...
    Is there a way to do it on Mac OS X? Maybe some plug-in, some file manager: anything...i often have to check out thousands of photos to find the reference for an illustration, and it's pretty frustrating having to open up every folder...
    Thanks in advance

    but none of these two options allows me to see a folder's images BEFORE opening it...
    You want to go back and try that again... just right click on the folder - you don't have to open it - and choose 'Show In PicturePopPro2'.
    Check out the icons on the menu bar - you can get a contact sheet view, move from shot to shot using the arrow keys... it'll do what you want.

  • How can you see page previews in Folio Producer for pdf folio files?

    Hi,
    When we load pdf folios into Builder, Producer doesn't show us a preview of the page like it does for the jpg folio loads. If you click on the page area for the pdf folios, it just gives you a red box. Is there a way to see the page previews for the pdf folios like you can for the jpg folios? It makes entering metadata more difficult without being able to see the page preview.

    That’s a limitation. No way around it.

  • How can you see what the actual fonts look like in menu?

    In WORD - when you go to the menu bar to see the fonts, you'll see maybe a hundred of them - but you see them the list in the "actual" font style of each font! So in a few seconds you can actually "see" a hundred font types - makes it easy to quickly select which one you like.
    I can't seem to do this in FCPro 5.04. I must click each font from the menu bar - type a word and THEN I see what it looks like. VERY TIME CONSUMING if you don't know your fonts!
    Isn't there a way in FCPro se see all the fonts in a list in the actual "style" of each font - like WORD does? There's a haxie called "Fontcard" that does exactly this - but not in FCPro!
    Can anybody do this - or I'm dreaming here - just keep checking them out 1 font at a time!!
    Thanks,
    Larry

    Larry,
    If you're not in too big a hurry when using Title 3D, you can scroll through the font list. As you go from one font to another, the characters you have highlighted will show in that font. Other than that, I use FontBook to preview fonts quickly.

    They weren't in Bridge CS3, but I thought they had fixed this in CS4... can someone please help me see my precious Illy previews in Bridge CS4?
    Pretty please?

  • How can I see my preview documents in the cloud?

    Hi, After installing Mountain Lion, one of the advantages is preview in the cloud, the possibility to upload your PDF...in the cloud from the preview app on the Mac. But I don't know where the docs go. There's no preview app for IOS.
    Any input on that?
    Thanks

    Evidently there is no way to view PDF files stored on iCloud by Preview on IOS yet. Surely Apple is working on this issue. Probably it will come out with IOS 6 (which does me no good since I have an iPad 1).

  • In print preview - how can you have multipage previews of the document - 1 - 2 - 3- 6 - 12 page preview and so on so that you can see if the document is ok to print?

    WINXP - In Explorer you can have multi-page print previews from 1, 2, 3, 6 upwards to check and confirm that the document will print correctly to your needs - and does this across the screen format as opposed to down the page, so that you can see all 12 pages on your screen to quickly see that the print percentage is correct and all pages fall into the print area and so on - how can you set this up with Firefox, because printing with Firefox is so unstable, you don't know what to expect when printing a document or web page?

    No what I mean is how can you see many pages across the screen without having to scroll like in explorer where you can see 12 or more small pages on your screen without scrolling down, like tiled across your screen as opposed to vertical down the page. Thanks

  • How can you see all the open tabs?

    When I use the drop-down Windows menu, it only shows the name of the window, not the tabs within each window. And I don't an option for "Activity Window" (like on Safari), or anything else that will show me all open tabs. How can I see them, as flipping through every open window is a pain....

    Hi,
    You can try to set '''browser.allTabs.previews''' to true in [http://kb.mozillazine.org/About:config about:config]. (In the [[Location bar autocomplete|Location bar]], type '''about:config''' and press '''Enter'''. The about:config "''This might void your warranty!''" warning page may appear.

  • How can I see the photo quality settings in iLife'06 books

    I assembled a 100 page book using iLife'05 over the last week or so. Luckily I hadn't ordered the book before learning about the new "improved print quality" when using iLife'06.
    Well, iLife'06 finally arrived today and I installed it and... Well, do I need to scrap my old book or can I just go ahead and order through iLife'06 and get that new great quality?
    While still running iLife'05 I printed my book to a PDF file and the file size for the PDF is 150.4MB.
    I then installed iLife'06 and printed the same book to another PDF file and the size of the file was ONLY 57.4MB. Almost a third the size. If anything I was expecting the PDF file to be much larger (double?).
    I even did a side by side comparison of the two PDF files using Preview and I've got to say that the '05 version was better than the '06. This makes sense since the file size is much larger in the '05 I would expect the image quality to be better.
    So, now I'm worried. How can I see what the settings are and how can I tell what I'll get when I'm going to order a book?
    Thanks!

    Chuck:
    The Print to PDF file is not exactly the same as the one iPhoto creates for uploading and printing. Here's how to get the iPhoto version. It involves going thru the ordering process until the book is assembled and then finding and copying the pdf file to the desktop and then canceling the ordering process.
    How to Find the iPhoto Generated PDF File:
    1 - Start the ordering process and stop after the book has been assembled and you get to the Order pane where you select the cover color, copies, etc.
    2 - Go to the Finder and select the Go->Go to Folder menu item (CommandShiftG).
    3 - copy the following, “/private/var/tmp/folders.501/TemporaryItems/iPhoto” (for Panther the path is "/private/tmp/501/TemporaryItems/iPhoto“), and paste into the Go to Folder search box.
    4 - the iPhoto folder will be brought up. In it will be the PDF file that was generated by iPhoto. You can copy it (Option-drag) to the Desktop to review and/or save.
    Note: the iPhoto folder will not exist before you start the ordering process and is deleted after the order is completed or after you cancel the order and quit iPhoto.

  • How can I see the alpha channel in the channels palette?

    Hello, mi format plugin loads a rgba image. I see it with transparency, that's ok, but when I go to the channels tab I only see 4 items (RGB, Red, Green and Blue).
    How can I see the alpha channel of my file in the channel tab?
    Thanks!

    OK, something must be wrong... but I don't find it!
    That's my whole code (resumed). I ommit some code (saving file code (not used) or main function, where I only call te "DoSomething" functions. You can see that I use layers. The DoReadContinue function is only used to show the preview.
    In the DoReadStart function I set the parameters for the layers (and the preview), and I fill the "data" and "layerName" params in the DoReadLayerContinue function. I hope you can understand the code!

    And that's the image that I obtain loading a 8 layer image:
    The layers have transparency (when I set "transparencyPlane" to  -1, or 0, or 1, or 2, or 3, or 4....., I got the same result!). The blending mode is still "normal". I had set it to "linear dodge" The "isVisible" param works OK.
    Alpha 1 is still black.
    Is possible that I need to set something in the .r file? I had to add "FormatLayerSupport { doesSupportFormatLayers }," to manage layers, for instance.

    Carolyn,
    I think your TV might be a rear projection model, correct? Those types of TVs inherently have overscan built into them as part of their optical design. The TV should have some picture SIZE settings that affect how much overscan is present, and some settings may even get rid of it altogether with the result there might be a small black border instead.
    Don't worry about changing TV settings. Settings like this are tied to a specific input. So if you make these types of changes while the TV is passing the mini's video through to the screen, those changes will only apply to the mini. When you switch to other inputs, like a cable box, etc., the old settings should still be intact and unchanged.
