Description
BrickView is a Windows application designed to view LEGO® set information from the Brickset.com website.

Features

You must have an account on Brickset.com for this application to work. Sign up here.
Since BrickView has to download the set images to display them, the first time a set shows up in a search, it will be somewhat slow to load. However, images are cached, and subsequent searches that include that set should display much more quickly. If the image cache folder {appdir}\cache gets too large, feel free to delete all or some of the image folders within it, and BrickView will re-download the images as it needs them.
The display of the results can vary with different combinations of View mode, Image size, & Group by options. This is the result of the standard Windows listview capabilities and limitations. Get into the habit of setting the different options before clicking the [Search] button.

Screenshots

Usage
Installation
Download the zip file and extract its contents into a new folder. Run BrickView.exe.

Uninstallation
Exit the application and delete the folder you unzipped it to. No changes are made to the registry.

Screenshot Captor / Is there a better way to navigate around the folder tree in the Thumbnail Panel?

« Last post by SuperMan on December 31, 2025, 07:53 PM »

Navigating folders is one of the very few weaknesses that I have experienced in SC over the years (to this day it is my favorite screenshot program).

But it's very difficult and slow to navigate the folder tree in the Thumbnail Panel. Sometimes I need to move around the folder tree while using SC and I have to use my file manager because it's too hard to do in SC. I have to navigate to the file in the file manager, then click on it to open the image in SC. Then if I need to work on another image elsewhere on the tree I have to go back to my file manager and repeat the process.

I am sure I must have asked about this before maybe quite a few years ago and assume there is no better way to navigate.

However I don't remember asking so I thought I would try again.

Is there any way to make folder navigation easier right within SC such as showing the folder tree in the Thumbnail Panel instead of the thumbnails or some other way to navigate efficiently? That would make it much faster and easier to move around.

Thanks for any help!
