Maximized thumbnail view?

Post by pdfuser2021 »

Is there a way to have the thumbnail view maximized?

It's frustrating there isn't one button to toggle thumbnail view within the main document window and then be able to double click to maximize that page. A lot of other PDF viewers have this feature (Goodreader iOS, PDF Expert macOS).

I feel PDF-XChange needs to do away with the Thumbnail panel and build it into the main view.

Any ideas on how I can do this or whether this feature request will be considered?

Hi, chris gallacher

We do not plan to "do away" with the thumbnails panel as it works currently, as it is infintely useful for a large number of our users. If you with to make it fullscreen, you can detach it from the main editor window, and set it to any size you so choose, even zooming in to get large size thumbnail tiles if you wish.

To do this, simply open the thumbnail pane, and then click the title bar of the pane and drag it away from the edge of the Editor window. when you release the mouse, the pane will be a new floating window.

Thanks Daniel!

When you undock it - how do you restore it back as a side pane?

Hi, chris gallacher

In much the same manner, you simply drag the pane back to the edge of the display area:
