I've run into an issue where the Vault client has quit showing thumbnails. It just shows 'Data Empty', even though it was showing Thumbnails a few days ago.

I'm pretty sure it's an easy setting, but I can't find it.

Does anyone know where it is?

The thumbnails in Vault are DWF files that are automatically created when you check a file in. It sounds like your DWF files are missing now.

There is a selection box to the right of all files you check in that states "Create DWF". Make sure this is selected the next time you check in the drawings.
