Preview window

Hello,

if a user make a mouse click on a document, is it possible to show directly the preview of this document? Standard is to show the properties.

Second question:
Is it possible to show the preview in a own window instead of the small frame under the document listing?

I want to prevent, that the users can download a document. They should only be able to see the content of a document within the openkm browser window.

Thx for your help!

In the CE you do not have the specific security grant for download. Anyway, that not solve everything only makes things more difficult.

Preventing downloading files is not easy, because the previewer works on the user's desktop, and to preview a document there, the user has not yet downloaded the file ( at least in the browser of the cache ). It is easy to capture files from there with few IT skills for a regular user.

If you are looking to protect files from being downloaded should think on a professional edition and there I will suggest two directions:
1- watermark all the documents with data and the user name who's previewing a document ( this is a deterrent ).
2- do not preview the original document, preview pages as images

I think the previewer should have a button option to maximize to use full screen. That's the easiest. If you wish to watch in a new browser tab you should use browser tools to check the iframe url used in the preview and create in some manner ( apply some change in the current code ) to open a link in a new tab
