preview availability


Recommended Posts

The original question seems to refer to Finder previews. This does not work with VW files - or many other files, for that matter. By and large, it is limited to graphics and plain text files. The preview is often generated by Finder.

I'm not even sure what the preview should show: a VW file is not technically 'a drawing' but rather something of a database from which you generate tens of drawings.

The Autocad preview that George is talking about is not a Thumbnail (which is the Windows equivalent of a Finder preview). It's part of Autocad. The preview only displays in Autocad's Open File dialog box. It shows a miniature version of the drawing window as it would appear if you were to open the file, and it displays almost instantly. And it's only available if the file was saved with a preview.

Photoshop has that too.
