Displaying image thumbnails in dmenu

[kamssiopeia]

Hello, I want to create rofi wallpaper picker with image preview. The problem is i can't get rofi to display image preview in dmenu like filebrowser mode does. Does anyone know how to achieve this?

This is what I'm using with the fullscreen-preview theme provided with rofi:

#!/bin/sh

WallDir=${1:-~/Pictures/Wallpapers}

PREVIEW=true \
rofi -no-config -theme fullscreen-preview.rasi \
	-show filebrowser -filebrowser-command 'setbg' \
	-filebrowser-directory "$WallDir" \
	-filebrowser-sorting-method mtime \
	-selected-row 1 >/dev/null

If your rofi is new enough, you can pass filename as icon. See the rofi-script manpage.

for a in *.jpg; do echo -en "$a\0icon\x1f$a\n" ; done | rofi -dmenu
