Version: unspecified (using KDE 4.5.1) OS: Linux Kalzium's ability to display molecular data files is really useful. It would be nice if it used this ability to generate a single snapshot image of the molecule and provided it to dolphin to be used as a preview for that file. This would make it much easier to find the file you are looking for. This might take some processing power up-front but once it is generated it can be stored on the disk. Reproducible: Always
It's a good idea, but it's not a bug, it's a sort of feature request. We could develop a dolphin plugin, like it has been done for open office documents. Etienne knows if it could be done.

Yes, it is feature request. I thought I set this report as a wishlist item. If not that was a mistake on my part.
Hi Todd Don't worry, you are right. This is the perfect place for wishes;) I have no idea how the dolphin preview stuff works nor if avogadro has a render engine of some sort. But it is certainly possible... If i finde some time, i might look for a solution. It sounds definitly intresting. @Luca: Please don't post the hole mail message. All the information is alredy here.
This was fixed/added in commit fcee55b38acf00ba36d7d61735a0281e48cd5598 my alex. The thing is, that in order to work the package chemical-mime-data is needed. http://downloads.sourceforge.net/chemical-mime/ This would be a packaging problem. I (etienne) have to look into it.

It was fixed.
