Page Thumbnails in InDesign
By default, the Pages panel in InDesign displays the page thumbnails vertically. Personally, I prefer to see them laid out horizontally. To change this, click the triangle in the top corner of the Pages panel and a sub-menu appears. Go to Panel Options… right at the bottom and uncheck the vertical option on the new panel that opens.
I also tend to change the thumbnail size to small icons.
Hello!
Do anyone know if there is possible to view all the pages in a document as thumbnails on the screen at the same time.
Very useful for sorting the pages.
In the old Pagemaker this function was possible.
Regards Lars
Hi Lars, yes, this is possible. Use the smal disclosure triangle on the top-right of the pages palette. Select Panel Options… From there you can set the size of the icons and use them as thumbnails.
Yes, I have tried this option, but I want to fill the hole screen with all the pages, not only a stripe with a few.
Sorry Lars, but other than choosing the extra large icons and resizing the pages palette, I don’t know of another way to view all the pages as thumbnails.
