I will reply for MacOS X (precisely 10.4.11) usage. When I am in the  
open file dialog of Preview (Apple app) or Intaglio or  
GraphicConverter (3rd party apps) a jpg or pdf document, I have a  
preview available at the right of the dialog window. This has been  
true for common bitmap image file formats even in the pre OS X days,  
thanks, I believe, to QuickTime.
When doing "New Referenced Control>Image file..." or "Import as  
Control>Image File..." and select a JPEG image, all I get is a  
generic JPEG icon in rev Studio 2.8.1. I do not know if it is a bug,  
but it certainly a missing feature.
Anybody has info on this?
