-===== Configuration ===== 
- 
-Tumbler has since version 0.1.27 a configuration file to control the priority, locations and file sizes the plugin is used for: [[http://git.xfce.org/xfce/tumbler/plain/tumblerd/tumbler.rc|tumbler.rc]]. 
- 
-To override the default configuration, located in one of the xdg directories on your system, you can copy the rc-file to your ''$XDG_CONFIG_HOME'' directory. 
- 
-NB: ''$XDG_CONFIG_HOME'' defaults to ''~/.config''. 
- 
-  mkdir -p $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/tumbler 
-  cp /etc/xdg/tumbler/tumbler.rc $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/tumbler/ 
- 
-Each group in the configuration file is responsible for the settings of a particular thumbnailer plugin. The following keys can be used to adjust a plugin: 
- 
-? Disabled 
-! Disable the plugin, the values ''true'' and ''false'' are accepted. 
-? Priority 
-! Numeric value to control the priority of the plugin. If 2 plugins can provide thumbnails for the same scheme + mime-type combination, the plugin with the highest priority is used first. 
-? Locations 
-! A ;-separated path list the plugin will be used for. If the source file is not a child of one of the locations, the plugin won't be used and another plugin with a lower priority will be tried. Absolute paths, environment variables, ~/ and ~username/ are allowed. Leave empty to allow all locations. 
-? MaxFileSize 
-! Maximum size of the source file the plugin will still try to generate a plugin for. The size is in bytes, 0 disabled the check.
