I'm sorry I don't remember exactly who I talked to on irc about this issue (maybe amyspark, I think I remember he changed something about files preview). It's been a while now thumbnails are broken in the finder. It makes life complicated when working on batches of 40 drawings. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Save a new drawing OBSERVED RESULT The preview should be replaced by a white page icon EXPECTED RESULT see a thumbnail of the file
I can confirm this bug, quicklook generator does not create any preview. this command on krita 3.3.3 generates a png preview, but on 4.4.0 and master creates a generic document icon, failing to produce a preview. qlmanage -p <img.kra> -g krita.app/Contents/Library/QuickLook/kritaquicklook.qlgenerator -c image probably it was broken by the changes on the generator by amyspark, should I assign them or may I take a look?

Hello, on Krita Version: 4.4.4-alpha (git cc5d52c), and krita 5 I still have broken thumbnails. I open any broken thumbnail file, do save and close but I still get a generic file icon. Also before it was modified, thumbnails used to be previewed bigger than now (space bar in the finder on an element to preview it)
please make sure 'qlmanage -m | grep kra' shows it is using the quicklook generator from the installed master/4.4.4-alpha. And also please regenerate caches so it forces the generator to recreate thumbnails. qlmanage -r and qlmanage -r cached The bug is solved
I followed your instructions but the thumbnails didn't budge. I still have the same file icon :'(
Hi, can you share your system OS version and specs? is the qlmanager commands I sent you show the quicklook generator used is from the latest install? (master/4.4.4-alpha) When I was testing there was a version from my dev repos that did not produce any thumbnails, but the version packaged from jenkins, the 4.4.4-alpha does generate the proper thumbnails and fullsize preview (this build https://binary-factory.kde.org/job/Krita_Stable_MacOS_Build/)
MacOS Big Sur version 11.2.3 (20D91) Macbook pro 15' 2018 It does work with the build you linked. I needed to open the "broken" files and save them again for the preview to be generated :o
