Finder-like File manager that displays thumbnails arbitrarily large and allows free movement
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}
I'm looking for a file manager that will make it easier to match up photos. I have two sets of photos with different names, and I need to rename like photos with similar names. I have been using PCManFM, but it has two problems:
I can't make the thumbnails any large. I need something like OS X where I can set the dimensions of the thumbnails, for instance to 128x128 or 256x256 as my needs change.
I need to be able to drag files around and sit them arbitrarily on the desktop. To do this I need to disable any automatic sorting or positioning of icons (also similar to what OS X provides). In this way I can drag similar files next to each other before they get renamed.
PCManFM does not provide either functionality. I have tried Thunar but while it lets me "zoom in" increasing the thumbnail size it isn't always enough. In addition, it doesn't let me disable the automatic sorting and resizing.
I have seen Pantheon but I'm running LUbuntu and don't want to mess with trying to install it unless I know it will work.
Are there any other file managers that will do this which will easily run on LUbuntu 18.04?
