I have a very strange issue and I'm almost sure, that it is my own problem and not directly module related. Nevertheless, it would be great i you could help me in finding a solution.

I recently upgraded from D5 to D6. In D5 no problems occured. For displying my presentations I created a View with table design. The first column should contain preview images, the second is for the title and the last one for the author (CCK-field). Unfortunately, no thumbnails are shown in the first column. But if I display an unformated teaser list, they are there! I rebuilt also the thumbnails with the recommended settings. Therefore I assume, that these thumbnails generally exist but can not be shown in the table view from Views 2 D6.

Thank you.

Surely, the thumbnails exist, but there is no support built into the module for views (i.e. there is no code to define fields).
The module should work if you use views to display teasers and full nodes. Let me know if it doesn't.
In future versions there will be Views+CCK support, and there is already a feature request for that.

Thank you for your answer.
I'm using views for displaying teasers, not a special field, but within a views generated table. And this does not work. As I mentioned above, in D5 it worked perfectly. For better understanding, I attached two screenshots, one from D5 and the other from D6.

I agree that this is a problem. Unfortunately I have no experience with Views. Perhaps another developer is able to debug this. A CCK+Views version of the module is probably going to happen sometime in the more distant future, but this would a nice to fix in the meantime.

It would be great if someone from the Views developper could help resolving this issue.

Many thanks

This should go back to ipaper. Modules are responsible for their own integration. AS the module maintainer is not versed with Views, it may be that he'll need someone to submit a patch. I have no idea how simple/complex ipaper is so I can't comment on how difficult this will be to do, but essentially this is a feature request that ipaper for D6 needs Views integration.

should this request be merged with the existing request for cck integration?
http://drupal.org/node/319069
If a cck field ith a usable value is provided, it can be used in views, too
