            Bug ID: 404657
           Summary: Photos preview on folder icon has only a 3MB cap
           Product: dolphin
           Version: 18.12.2
          Platform: Manjaro
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: dolphin-bugs-n...@kde.org
          Reporter: michal.dybc...@gmail.com
                CC: elvis.angelac...@kde.org
  Target Milestone: ---

It seems to be the same issue as https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=331240

but this was strangely marked as solved while this is clearly NOT SOLVED AT
ALL. All people I asked to reproduce it CAN REPRODUCE IT ON NEWEST versions of
packages.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a folder with all photos above 3MB.
2. Go up in the folder structure and you will see just general folder icon, but
no preview icons of the photos inside.
3. Downsize one photo to the size below 3MB, you will see its image on the
folder preview. Have at least 4 of such photos, you will get 4 images to
preview icons on a folder icon.

The issue is: 3MB cap is arbitrary set and there is no Dolphin setting to
change that. We can for example set image size of network images preview but
not this one? It seems strange. The default 3MB cap may be OK as a default but
still should be changeable since many of the photos taken by smartphones are
above 3MB. It feels like this was set many years ago but no one cared to update
it to the current standards. So either we get a higher cap (at least 6MB) or
let us have this as an option which would be preferable because any arbitrary,
static cap won't be good for some person or use case.
