In 18.04 I could set the size of thumbnails in Nautilus by adjusting the dconf setting org.gnome.nautilus.icon-view thumbnail-size as mentioned in https://askubuntu.com/a/1097952/680632 and https://askubuntu.com/a/539812/680632

I recently upgraded to 19.10 and the thumbnail-size key seems to be gone. Am I missing something or is there a new way to set the thumbnail size?

    Indeed, I confirm: the option is not anymore there. – vanadium Dec 14 '19 at 10:34

    I haven't found any other way to change the max thumbnail size in nautilus (3.36.3). I have also tried gthumb and thunar as alternatives for convenient photo browsing, but no luck there either. – malewick Dec 27 '20 at 20:24

If you're trying to resize thumbnails for simply press the down arrow key and enter the percentage you need. The default is 50% but can be adjusted to either 67%, 100% or 133%.

I know you didn't ask, as you probably already know this , if NO or only SOME thumbnails appear go to home/.cache/thumbnails and delete everything in that folder. Then reboot and they will then appear.

    The question refers to the maximum possible size of the thumbnails in the nautilus, which could have been changed through dconf in the previous version. – malewick Dec 27 '20 at 20:20
