Hi,

Using Win32API calls, how can one design a thumbnail preview window (like that of Windows-Explorer) to display contents of graphic files (.tif, .jpg, etc.) in VB ?

Thank you, in anticipation.

Using BitBlt, StretchBlt or the VB6 PaintPicture method.

You have to develop your own algorithms to obtain the wanted result. (not very difficult, just calculate the dimensions and the number of thumbnails)

Otherwise, Pegasus also has some tools like Imag'N and FX Tools 5

See http://www.pegasustools.com where you can download an evaluation version. (very cool)
