File Preview
File Preview feature allows the user to preview a file without downloading it to local storage.
For regular users (users, guests, external users) the preview option is available for sanitized downloadable files. Supervisors can also preview files that are currently under approval process or from the approval history. Administrators can preview all files.
For normal users the feature can be used from My Files or Shared with me page, while supervisors can preview the files also from Pending Approval and Approval History page.
When clicking on the Preview action button, after a short loading time, a modal will open displaying the file.
The Preview modal also allows user to navigate through the file pages, search for words, zoom in and out.
