Naming thumbnails of products

lina.catfish

If I save a product (that's the correct term for the over all category for things, isn't it? Shaders, poses... all this?) DAZ saves a preview image and name it --PRODUCTNAME.duf.png--.

I want to change that. I want it to name the file PRODUCTNAME.png and use it as a thumbnail.

How can I achieve this?

Somewhere there was a discussion about this naming and the NAME.duf.png also seems to cause problems. Unfortunately I did not find the discussion thread again. Do you remember which problems are connected with this naming convention? Information about this would also helpful.

Thanks in advance.

Change it under Preferences > Content.

Thanks for the quick answer yesterday. Unfortunately, I can't find it there. 'Content' offers some display options and many more loading options to change as well as directory management. But nothing that promises saving, exporting or file type... things. Can you give a hint: What do you call exactly what I'm looking for?

It's under F2 > Content tab > Thumbnail Saving,  set to:  Use inclusive thumbnail extension.

What I'd prefer is the duf.png file be the size of the tip.png file and then not have the tip file. I doubt it saves processing time to have them at separate sizes given the small sizes of 91x91 vs 256x256.

Unfortunately DS gives no option of "Post Save" otherwise we can easily insert a script there to raplace .png with .tip.png.

But still, Daz Scripts can do it by save / save as firstly, then replace .png with .tip.png and delete .tip.png. Then replace default actions of Save / Save As with the scripts + custom shortcuts ~~
