Document Preset Preview Images

[Guest]

Every time I look at the document preset dialog I'm reminded just how much space is wasted with the useless 'thumbnails' as they are ALL EXACTLY THE SAME regardless of the actual preset aspect ratio. You cannot select the correct item based on the image alone without knowing the actual dimensions. For instance the 'Social Media Square Post' is displayed as a rectangular landscape preview, while the 'Social Media Portrait Post' is also displayed as the exact same rectangular landscape preview. With the previews being irrelevant it makes you wonder why there are even presented in this manner?

Anyway, I know there are many issues to be addressed, and this one could be considered 'cosmetic' (IMHO it shows a lack of care), but I thought I'd just add it to the growing list of issues in the hope that it may be fixed at some far-off point in the future.

This is something that has always irritated me; it would be so much better if the "thumbnails" were the same ratio as the actual template!

For me, it would be much better if the thumbnails (even if they respected the actual dimensions of the document) could be replaced by a very simple and clear list of formats, so that the user would not have to browse and search several pages with strange images, the most important of which is the several-letter text.

That would suit me – Anything other than wasting so much space on meaningless "thumbnails"!
