Exact steps for others to reproduce the error

  • Set in the Preferences:
  • Interface > Temporary Editors to "Maximized Area"

  • File > Save As
  • the workspace is replaced by a temporary file browser editor which will be captured in the screenshot

Save a file and look at the thumbnail.

Can't reproduce this issue here. Perhaps this needs specificv timing? Or its platform specific... @lichtwerk can you check?

Mostly because File preview type is set to screenshot.

Don't think this is platform specific.

Set file preview type to Camera, that may fix the issue: {nav Edit > Preferences > Save & Load > File Preview type -> Camera}

This works fine here even if I set File preview type to screenshot.

Well, there are no clear steps to reproduce the error, so I think you can merge them. Or wait for additional comments from the author.

I can reproduce with these steps, Looking at provided screenshot closely, I think we can safely close this as duplicate.
