### PrusaSlicer/SuperSlicer
To enable thumbnails, click on `Help > Show Configuration Folder` and navigate to your printer profiles inside the `printer` folder.
Open your printer profile in a text editor and find `thumbnails =` and add the resolutions `32x32,400x300`. Save the file and restart your Slicer.
