Title: Can one show several lines of Thumbnail Text?
Post by: 8139david on January 19, 2016, 02:38:33 am

In a Thumbnail view, the text fills the width of each Thumbnail.
Would there be a way to have several lines of text below each Thumbnail?
This way one can have small Thumbnails, with more text displayed.
* Eg, instead of just:
Tarkovski Andr
* One would get this for a Director > Year > Name view with 3 lines below each Thumbnail
Tarkovski Andr
ei - 1966 - An
drei Roublev

Cool.
But I don't understand how you indicate how many lines of Thumbnail text are allowed?
By default, it's one.

just type in what you want ... hitting return starts a new line

you can hit the little triangle as indicated to bring up a wizard to help you. I'd stick to adding fields until you have a handle on expressions.

Please read the wiki on expression language, for more elaborate options/info.
