The option "show 4 thumbnails in folders" should adapt if there is only 1 or 2 images in the folder.

Post by null_subject »

Right now, if the option "show 4 thumbnails in folder's thumbnail (instead of 1) is checked, the image thumbnails are scaled down to 1/4 of the folder thumbnail to accommodate more images. This is a very practical feature.

Unfortunately, when there is only 1, or 2 images in the folder, the images do not scale back up to the original size (before enabling the "show 4 thumbnails" option) to take advantage of the space.

I understand that a "2 thumbnail" view would have to be implemented from scratch (and perhaps give the user the option of vertical or horizontal separation), and this isn't the most important feature in the world, but—please—at least automatically switch back to the 1 thumbnail view when there is only one image inside.

Thank you!
