Thumbnails / No Parking Sign

Does anyone happen to know why you get the “No Parking” sign when using Thumbnails? Say I have open my In-box, Workspace and Contacts, then I open the Thumbnails page… I can see the Mail and Workspace Thumbnails just fine, however the Contacts show up as a “No Parking” sign (circle with a slash through it) with a little refresh icon in the bottom right hand portion of the screen. If I click on the Refresh icon, it will close the Thumbnails and switch to that tab. If I immediately re-open the Thumbnails page, it shows the Contacts properly. However, if I close the Contacts tab, then re-open Contacts, then Thumbnails, it once again goes back to the No Parking sign.

Do you know how I can get the Thumbnails page to properly show all of my tabs, by default? Thanks in advance.

Hi FolksI will forward your question to Matt-the-developer who can give you a better answer for why you get the “circle with the line thru it” on some of the thumbnails.

I believe it is because a tab has to have focus (or be on top of the stack or some such thing) for at least x milliseconds for the client to “take a snapshot” (for some reason-- performance??) there are no snapshots of each tab taken when you close down).

So there really is nothing that you can do to get a real thumbnail, unless, every time you start the client, you make sure you click each tab to bring it to the front.

There doesn’t seem to be any rhyme or reason to it.
