Windows Photo Gallery display name under picture

Hi slam5,

Your thread is marked solved - care to share what you did?

I found a few help pages, but I'm running Win8 and the pages keep taking me to Win8 help.

I did find a few references to tagging and batch naming - but I think all you're looking for (or found) is a way to display the filename along with the date & time.

Photo Gallery - Microsoft Windows
Themes might allow you to specify what gets displayed.

Photo Gallery - Microsoft Windows
Not a whole lot here, but I didn't dig that deep.

Windows Photo Gallery - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hi
I believe your referring to the View section :)

Ok, here is what I found. If you go to choose how to display icon. The one on the top right corner where you can choose how the thumbnails are displayed. When you click on it, it show option of "thumbnail" "thumbnail with text" or "tile". Choose "tile" and you will see the name of the picture, tags and date modified. It took me a few hours.

Glad you found what you wanted and I appreciate that you posted what you found.
Other members who might want to do the same thing benefit from your solution.
