Where is thumbnails view / grid view in file picker ? 24.04 Gnome 46

Asked by Coeur Noir

Hi,

I was expecting to see something like this :

https://blog.gtk.org/2022/12/15/a-grid-for-the-file-chooser/ ⋅ https://www.omglinux.com/gnome-thumbnails-file-picker/ ⋅ https://news.itsfoss.com/gnome-file-picker/

in Ubuntu 24.04 while using Firefox for uploading pictures or LibreOffice Writer for inserting picture(s) into a document.

Is it a bug or is this feature still not implemented at all ?

Mmm, I've found it in Clapper ( both .deb and flatpak )

But Firefox is like this → https://i.ibb.co/gg0Jz9M/2404-filechooser-firefox.jpg

I don't even know which package is related to that file~browser~chooser~picker…

Which version of firefox do you have installed?

What is the last line of the output of the command

snap info firefox

Can you help with this problem?
