      Hi philosophy-chemical,

      Please have a look here:

      Add your vote please.

      In my private opinion, it seems like something Apple needs to address. Yes, there could be a workaround, but that might be eliminated when Apple fixes it. Meaning, all previews set up with an app based solution might miss the images then. This puts every non-Apple developer in a difficult position.

      Yes, having no solution after so many months is annoying; I agree.

      My best wishes.

        @philosophy-chemical Hi, yeah it's pretty sad this hasn't been fixed yet. Right now I need to search for some old Project files in my Archive, it's a joke because I have to open every file to check for it's contents. My workaround for now is to use Anchorpoint

        , a great project tool in general which has the ability to generate C4D Thumbnails for its own file view. Try not roll your eyes while digesting the fact that you have to use a third party tool to get thumbnails of your C4D files. Let me know if this works for you, hope I could at least ease the pain a bit.

          Hi everyone,

          Please note that any 3rd party app suggested here in the forum from members doesn't mean that we test the app for security.
          This is at your own risk.

          All the best

            Thank you very much, Anchorpoint seems to fill the gap
