Houdini 15.0.382: Add back support for showing icons as images in the file chooser that was lost when it was rewritten in Houdini 9.

I noticed that this appeared in the journals.

How do I make this NOT the default? The typical images folders contains hundreds (thousands?) of files – the image thumbnails are simply noise at that point.

right click in the Choose Icon dialogue and select show images (on/off)
should now be the default.

I think I've figured out which dialog box it was.

It's mplay.

open mplay, load a clip, select file -> save sequence as (toogle off show-images in the RMB menu).
close mplay.

restart mplay. load a clip, select file -> save sequence as.

curse at giant icons.

ps: I know. I shouldn't really be saving anything from mplay on the regular… but here we are.

yes - mplay doesn't have it's own prefs for things like this…
there are RFEs covering this issue (and it drives me crazy also )
