No preview for folders containing images

[josvanr]

Previously, gwenview showed a number of sample images for folders that contain images. Extremely useful. Since I updated to xubuntu 18.04, this doesnt work any more. I now only see the name of the folder. When I navigate into the folder, I do see thumbnails. (jpegs etc)
