Hi Tim,

The code I am currently working on is a thumbnail viewer. Also planned is an easy to use thumbnail generator but I have started that, and it will be included in version 2.

You could modify your thumbnail code posted to avoid using a TImageScrollBox, by using TDibGraphic objects directory and the TResizeTransform. See the NewDibGraphic function in the online help, which returns a TDibGraphic class for a specific file format.

Best regards,

Michel
