[SOLVED]Thunar does NOT generate previews

I've noticed that Thunar only shows previews of  png, svg, or ico file format (and possibly even more image file types) only if they are opened in GIMP or touched in the open dialog of gimp aswell. How can I make it so I don't have to touch them to generate the previews. I've got a big pile of icons that i'd like to modify but its rather hard to find them when there is no preview in them.  The view as icons, detailed, and compact options dont fix the problem. Is this just me, or is like that by default?

Thanks. That worked like a charm. Why is it not mentioned in the official thunar wiki?

Tumbler is an optdepends for Thunar. Pacman should have told you that.
