Generating Thumbnails

Generating Thumbnails

Example of Generating Thumbnails

To generate thumbnails for a series, click the menu and select "Generate Thumbnail". This will generate a thumgnail for the folder based on it's contents.

  1. Folders with a single file will use that file as the thumbnail.
  2. Folders with multiple files will use the up to the first 4 files to generate a fanned "stack" of comics. The first file will be the top of the stack, and the last file will be the bottom of the stack. The rotation of the files is random to prevent the same orientation from being used for all folders.
  3. Folders with multiple folders will use a similar process to generate a thumbnail, but the "stack" of comics will be "inside" a folder icon. The first image from up to 4 folders will be used to generate the thumbnail.

Mark a Series as "Want to Read"

You can mark a series as a "Want to Read" by clicking the icon in the top left of the series list. This will add the series to the "Want to Read" section on the collection page, allowing you to quickly access the series from the collection page or the OPDS feed.
