Can confirm. Looks like kdegraphics-thumbnailers doesn't build for Qt 6 yet.

Comment 2 Nicolas Fella 2023-09-10 22:45:28 UTC

kdegraphics-thumbnailers builds fine against Qt6, if anything Neon is missing it

Comment 3 Patrick Silva 2024-01-14 11:48:53 UTC

Now Dolphin generates video previews, but pdf previews are still missing. The option to enable pdf preview is not available in Dolphin settings.

kdegraphics-thumbnailers does build for Qt6 now, and I see both PDF thumbnails as well as the option to enable or disable them in Dolphin's settings (Under the name "Postscript, PDF and DVI files").

If you're still not seeing that there, I suspect it's a Neon packaging issue, for which I would recommend submitting a new bug report.

Oh, silly me, this is already the Neon bug.

Comment 6 Kevin Colyer 2024-03-02 19:04:16 UTC

Following the upgrade to Plasma 6 on Neon (great work BTW) there is no option in Dolphin to enable previews for PDFs. (Video thumbnails yes and working ok). kdegraphics-thumbnails package is installed.

kdegraphics-thumbnailers  & kdegraphics-thumbnailers-5 are now in all editions and should be promoted to user edition very soon
