On one W4 machine I have JPGs from two cameras. The pics from one
camera will open, the other will not. In both cases RMB\open as has
Image Viewer. On both LMB opens a window that has at the top; XXXXX.JPG
- Editor. The pics from one camera then fail to open. On both there
are no thumbnails.

eCS 2.0, across the LAN, on one of the files that will not open on the
"failing" machine, RMB\Open as says Picture editor. And LMB does open
it. Is the eCS "Picture editor" the same as the W4 "Image viewer-Editor"?

The thumbnail icons are created by WPS Wizard. It creates them one at a
time after the folder is opened. It also puts the thermometer on the
drives objects.

From the CHANGES file, WPS Wizard V 0.5.1

"-The image contained in an image file is drawn as the icon (if the
cw-multimedia classes are installed). "

On another W4 machine, I get thumbnails and LMB opens them. Apparently
something is different, what?

I just want to sort, name and view pics. The thumbnails in a folder
works fine for that - when it works.
