Option to hide empty thumbnail labels

Post by Destroy666 »

If you use the (()) conditionals, some labels can be empty. THen there's no point showing them, especially in folders where e.g. 2 last lines are missing.

Add an option like "Hide empty labels" that would stop showing them and just show background in their place.

Hence optional. I much more prefer different order than to have 3 empty labels enlarging the view in folders without EXIF.

The ideal would be to remove the empty spaces completely, no?

+1 for this suggestion in any case.

Yeah, that example is what I more or less mean.

I meant more like hiding entire rows if empty. E.g. 3 on the screenshots are black.
