Bug: Dragging item with large thumbnail in grid view takes up too much space on the screen

[bAN0NYM0US]

Description

While dragging photos being viewed in large size thumbnails. It will drag a preview of the thumbnail in that full large size with no transparancy.
This makes it difficult to sort photo's from Thumbnail view into List/Details view folders as the thumbnail covers multiple folders and you can't see what folder you're about to drop it in unless you manually open the folder first.

Steps To Reproduce

1. First folder showing thumbnails view
2. Second folder showing list or details view
3. Drag a thumbnail view file over to the list or details view folder and the thumbnail being dragged will cover multiple folders making it hard to see were it's being dropped.

Fix? Either making the drag & drop thumbnail transparancy customizable or making the thumbnail size being dragged much smaller.
Alternativly, like in File Explorer, you could make it to the files being dragged are at the top or bottom of the cursor instead of right in the middle. Would make it much more managable.

Requirements

• Dragging items should display a thumbnail preview with a set size.

Sorry for the delayed response and thanks for the report, I was able to reproduce this.

I think the preferred solution is to have a set size for the thumbnail preview
