This patch increases the default size of the icons in Short View to 64px, to facilitate using them along with previews to see the content of predominately visual files. This patch makes Short View usable by default as the preferred mode for finding visual content.
For content that is best found via filename or metadata, or for long lists, Detailed Tree View is a better view, and D12077: Show view mode buttons in the open/save dialog's toolbar makes it easy to switch.
This patch has many prerequisites before it makes sense:
- D12306: Improve grid icon layout in filepicker dialog
- D12328: Enable preview by default in the filepicker dialog
- Make all extant clients that use KDirOperator as a file browser panel set a non-default view mode:
Depends on D12306
Depends on D12328
Depends on D12358
Depends on D12360
