Thumbnail frame color

[bugmenot]

Is it possible to change color of the thumbnail frame?

[Sombra]

Try to put in [color] section one this options:

Code: Select all

ThumbnailFrame=000255000

-1 Sets color of frame around thumbnails: -1=default
-2=invisible,
RGB value = you definition

The example show a green frame.

Hello !

• You may use here the hexa code for the colour, in the order BGR, like :
ThumbnailFrame=$F055BF
ThumbnailFrame=$0000FF
ThumbnailFrame=$FF0000
ThumbnailFrame=$760000
- It's supported and simpler to set, IMHO…

Hello K. !

• Huuu … ! It's an old story ! It was revealed that the inverted hexa code (Little endian) can work in TC while I added "Colours by file-types" the first time some years ago…
- I got the precious help of Lefteous at this moment because some issues with the files without extension
(thanks again to him !)

- Then, when the thumb-nails have been added, we thought naturally to customize the frame-colour,
and also to use the hexa-code.
It's simpler than the calculation using complements, a pain in the neck !

{ Anecdote ::: Testing the thumb-nails, I had moth-eaten frames under Win 98 SE, and nobody was able to reproduce this ! Fortunately, Lefteous (again!) found out the cause and the fix-method, the issue was real !
Then, we got a much better drawing of the frame in any case ! }

Absolutely! Thanks for this trick!
I think it MUST be described in the help file.

Yes, I know.

- There is already a small note in the Tutorial at 4 - "b" <wincmd.ini> chapter >> [Colors] >>> ThumbnailFrame=…

There only mentioned that it should contain an RGB value, but it is described above in the description of BackColor:

Background color (rgb: red+256*green+65536*blue)

So, the "RGB" from ThumbnailFrame definitely refers to this definition of RGB and not to any other.

I said the TUTORIAL not the official Help !

{blue pen icon}It's easier to set a colour as a hexa value in the order : B G R for instance $883129

- It's there for a pretty while !
