  • Maya IFF file preview within Apple OSX finder window

    Posted by Cameron on August 22, 2006 at 4:44 pm

    Hi, would anybody know how to get the small preview images under the file properties in the finder window to show up for IFF files. This seemto be working for most other image file types but not for IFF files. I’m trying to organize some images that have not been named efficiently and its a hassle to open up an application just to get a quick look at the image.

    Thanks

    I could be wrong but the format has to be supported by quicktime, and i believe QT may even have to be the default app for opening the filetype…. but I may be wrong…

    Thanks for the tip but no luck on that either. I made quicktime the default app for IFF files and it opens them up just fine but no preview image in the finder.
    Any other ideas?
