Addition View Type.

it would be good to have Large Icons View, sometimes i think if a folder was previewed in large icons it would have been more informative for folders that have images in them.

The preview is usually good to get a birds-eye view of the folder structure, and specifically to dive into subfolders. Larger icons take up more space, reducing the benefit.

With that said, it can be a configurable toggle to switch. PRs welcome as always!

totally agree, would be a greet feature, especially in certain use cases

For my poor eyes FolderViewer icons and font are way TOO SMALL I have to squint all the time.
Many thanks in advance for your kind help/suggestion.

Hi guys! I have added this plugin and it's great, but I wish there was a "Grid View" for example like the default MacOS folder preview, much easier on the eyes because list view is way too small for my eyesight. Could this be added in the future?

I don’t understand coding, but I tried using AI to help me modify the code to achieve the functionality of previewing thumbnail images within a folder. I’m not sure if this code will work?

using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Linq;
using System.Windows;
using System.Windows.Controls;
using System.Windows.Media.Imaging;
using QuickLook.Common.Plugin;

namespace QuickLook.Plugin.FolderViewer

public class Plugin : IViewer
{
private StackPanel _panel;
private bool _isDirectory;

    public int Priority => -5;

    public void Init()
    {
        // Initialization code (if any)
    }

    public bool CanHandle(string path)
    {
        if (Path.GetPathRoot(path) == path)
            return false;

        _isDirectory = Directory.Exists(path);
        return _isDirectory;
    }

    public void Prepare(string path, ContextObject context)
    {
        context.PreferredSize = new Size { Width = 800, Height = 600 };
        // Preparation code (if any)
    }

    public void View(string path, ContextObject context)
    {
        _panel = new StackPanel
        {
            Orientation = Orientation.Horizontal,
            HorizontalAlignment = HorizontalAlignment.Center
        };

        var folderImages = Directory.GetFiles(path, "*.jpg").Take(10); // Get the first 10 JPG images in the folder

        foreach (var imagePath in folderImages)
        {
            var image = new Image
            {
                Width = 100, // Thumbnail width
                Height = 100, // Thumbnail height
                Margin = new Thickness(5) // Set the spacing between thumbnails
            };

            var bitmap = new BitmapImage();
            bitmap.BeginInit();
            bitmap.UriSource = new Uri(imagePath);
            bitmap.DecodePixelWidth = 100;
            bitmap.EndInit();

            image.Source = bitmap;
            _panel.Children.Add(image);
        }

        context.ViewerContent = _panel;
        context.Title = $"{Path.GetFileName(path)}";
        context.IsBusy = false;
    }

    public void Cleanup()
    {
        // Cleanup code (if any)
        _panel = null;
    }
}

}
