But I haven't been able to locate them using the Dolphin file browser. Where are the GIMP thumbnails stored? And what's the file extension? As far as I can tell, GIMP 2.9/2.10 seems to "forget" about whatever thumbnails it creates just as soon as GIMP is closed. Is there a setting in Preferences that needs to be (re)set? Is it the Document History" option? I don't know what folders Nautilus uses and I'm not willing to install Nautilus to find out. But if GIMP creates thumbnails (pngs?) and puts them in a specific folder, I can ask digiKam to monitor that folder. Or rather maybe I can copy the thumbnails over to the folders where I keep the XCF files.
