If configured to do so, Webtop can display thumbnails as visual cues to a file’s type or content. For an image file, a thumbnail is usually a smaller rendition of the image. For other types of files, a thumbnail is usually a standard file-type graphic.

If configured to do so, Webtop creates thumbnails for new files when they are first created or imported into the repository. Note that the new thumbnail might not appear right away. Thumbnail creation is performed asynchronously, which means the thumbnail might not be immediately available.
