How to trackpad swipe images in the Finder in Monterey?

I just updated my Mac Mini to Monterey and I cannot find the old behavior I had in the Finder.


When I had a folder with photos in Gallery mode, I could swipe with the trackpad above images very quickly. Now the Gallery mode has very tiny thumbnails that are useless in the bottom, and I have to press the right arrow for each picture displayed (which I cannot resize), which is a NO GO for me since as a photographer I browse hundreds of pictures.

Plus it seems impossible to resize like before...


As for selecting all pictures and Ctrl+Space, this is similar: I need to click right arrow for each photo.


On Catalina I could just swipe the pictures thumbnails (that I was able to resize) and that was very efficient.


How to do that in Monterey?


Thanks!
