Several seconds? Consider yourself lucky. Mine took a couple of minutes
for some of them.

Open dialog file previews in CS
Was anything ever resolved re the very slow initial generation of file previews in the CS File>Open dialog box? On my system it takes several seconds for the preview of a large file to appear. I know others were complaining of the same issue, but I've lost track of the threads.
Thanks

Dave, it doesn't work. I asked Chris what the thing was actually supposed to
do but I never got an answer.

ho, not sure if this is the one i remember, so i'll just throw this out - did you run the reg file in the goodies folder to turn off thumbs in the open dialog? (or do you want them and they're just too slow?)

what doesn't work derrick? turning it off or on? it says it "allows" (or not) thumbnails in the open dialog box.
I recently found an article on chaning the view of the open dialog (details, thumbnails, icons, etc.). if anyone's interested i'll post it. not sure if it'll help w/this issue.

We were trying to get rid of the preview that is in the File|Open dialog,
underneath the file list window. Near as I could tell this reg key didn't do
anything at all - off or on, CS or 7, and I know others tried it to no avail
not) thumbnails in the open dialog box.

OIC. the preview is different from thumbnails, i think.

Yes, dave, apparently the preview is hooked to the File Browser cache
(create a new file and go to the open dialog, then look at your FB cache - a
new file will have been created), so I assume it has nothing to do with
psicon.dll or the Windows thumbs.db

"Several seconds" might have been an optimistic assesment.
Anyway, I take it that this has yet to be resolved.
