Custom Project Thumbnail

PostThu Mar 13, 2025 3:28 pm

Currently, setting a custom thumbnail for projects in the Project Manager is extremely difficult, if not impossible.

I would love the ability to define a custom thumbnail for projects. This could be implemented with a right-click option on a project in the Project Manager:

Right-click > Custom Thumbnail > Select Image

Once a custom thumbnail is set, it should also disable the slideshow effect that changes the thumbnail when hovering over it, as this behavior wouldn’t make sense in this context.

We only look in List mode, so we never see the thumbnails at all. We have too many projects to use Thumbnail mode.

I wouldn't object, though, if BMD wanted to add this feature.

The lack of the ability to set a custom Project Thumbnail is frustrating. Please, Blackmagic, add this soon! I get tired of seeing the same still graphic image for all my projects when I open up my Project Library.
