How to prevent documents in ODF of showing a preview of my documents in Files (aka Nautilus)?
I use Ubuntu 18.04 and the Libre Office version installed in my PC is 6.0.7.3.
Most of my files are in Open Document Format (odt and ods). Some are in Microsoft Office's format (such as doc, docx and xlsx).
In my system, Microsoft Office's documents are show as a icon depending if it's a text document or a spreadsheet. My ODF files, however, are show as a "preview" of the first page. It blows my mind, since I keep a copy of all my files in PDF format and the PDF files shows a preview of the first page as well.
Given the facts, my doubt is: how to prevent documents in ODF of showing a preview of my documents in Files? I would like to see icons instead of a preview, just like it happens to Microsoft Office files.
Thank you!
