Description
Imagefield automatically creates a thumbnail of the images uploaded and I'd like to know if there is a way to display this field with Views2?
#1
I don't know if the thumbnail from the imagefield widget can be used in views, but you could create an imagecache preset to do the job. Imagecache presets are available as field formatters in views2.
#2
No, you cannot use the thumbnails generated by ImageField for any purpose other than on the node-edit form. The ImageField image generation mechanism is only done on node-edit (which means it only has to generate one image at a time) and would not scale well under a situation where multiple images needed to be generated at once. In Drupal 7 we've integrated both ImageField and ImageCache into core, making it so these two are no longer separate, which is partly the reason that I have marked this "by design" in #423714: CCK Display Fields: Thumbnail .
#3
I found a way to do it with Views and Imagecache. Thanks.
