Greetings,
Suddenly, gthumb has stopped showing thumbnails of jpegs and other types of
files in the browser window.
If I do something like <ctrl>-O, I can open a file directly to view it.
However, when I do a <ctrl>-R in a directory, the window doesn't refresh.
Instead, othe types of files (*.txt, *.svg, e.g.) show up.
I can view the contents of directories using other image viewing software.
I know that I was typing quickly, and perhaps something caused the jpegs and
other files to be masked through an inadvertant configuration procedure.
However, as yet, I haven't been able to restore gthumb to my preferred
configuration.
I've looked of the ~/.thumbnails directories; found one, deleted it. The new
thumbnails that appear are referenced to the *.txt, *svg files only. None of
the other files or thumbnails get recreated.
Any advice in this situation would be appreciated.
In the meantime, I'll keep looking and fiddling.
Thank you.

Apologies for the disruption.
In the Browser window along the bottom is a dropdown with the prefix
"Show:"
Mine showed "All".
However, when I went to "Personalize" I saw that the "General Filter" was
set for "Text Files." (Don't know how that happened). Setting it for "All
Images" restored my usual configuration.
The confounding part was that in accessing this webpage:
https://help.gnome.org/users/gthumb/stable/gthumb-filtering.html.en
It indicates to go to "View->Filger," something which I couldn't find.
fyi,
