Description
I used the commands from the documentation to generate previews just for some specific sizes:
./occ config:app:set --value="32 64 1024" previewgenerator squareSizes
./occ config:app:set --value="64 128 1024" previewgenerator widthSizes
./occ config:app:set --value="64 256 1024" previewgenerator heightSizes
Here is a screenshot from the database:
Then I followed the instructions to delete the existing previews and regenerate:
- Remove the
your-nextcloud-data-directory/appdata_*/previewdirectory - run
occ files:scan-app-data - Regenerate with
occ preview:generate-all
But these settings have no effect. I still get previews in many sizes up to 4096 after running the occ preview:generate-all.
Please let me know what I'm doing wrong, every help or hint is welcome :)

Research direction
Reproduce the issue with the documented occ config:app:set commands, followed by removal of the appdata preview directory, files:scan-app-data, and preview:generate-all. Trace how the previewgenerator settings are read during generation and compare the configured sizes with the generated previews. Done means only the configured square, width, and height sizes are generated.
