Quick View "Thumbnail" Threshold

In order to ensure that the quick view feature is actually quick, large images are not displayed at full resolution. Any image above a specified size is replaced by a lower resolution copy. These quick view copies are referred to as "thumbnails", although they are considerably larger than normal thumbnail images.

By default, an image is replaced by a thumbnail version if it is larger than 1 megabyte. You can, however change this default by adding a quickViewThumbnailThreshold property setting to one of your CUE configuration files:

quickViewThumbnailThreshold: 1500000

The threshold must be specified in bytes.

The quick view thumbnail feature depends on the Content Store metadata extraction feature (see Metadata Extraction) in order to be able to determine the size of the original image. If this Content Store feature is not enabled then the original image will always be used, irrespective of the value set with quickViewThumbnailThreshold.
