Working within a Folder
On the Folder Window, click on the desired folder. The documents contained in the folder are
displayed in the work area. Each of your documents appears as a thumbnail image, showing the
file’s name and type. Note that it takes longer to generate thumbnails the first time a folder is
selected. If you click a thumbnail while this process is happening, the generation process stops and
you can start using a file. However, the remaining thumbnails are left gray.
Viewing Files as Thumbnails
To page through a multi-page document, click on the document to select it, and then click on the
arrows on either side of the thumbnail. Or, use the Next Page or Previous Page options in the View
menu. You can see up to the first 20 pages of the document as thumbnails. When you move to the
second page of a multi-page document, Sharpdesk will “look ahead” up to 20 pages to be ready for
the next page request. The caption of the thumbnail contains the current page number and the
total page count of the document (up to 20 pages. If there are more than 20 pages, the total page
count will be represented as “20+”.) When you get to the 20
th
page of a multi-page document,
further clicks to the next page will be ignored. You can page back to the front of the document
using the left arrow or the Previous Page option on the View menu.
The work area is automatically arranged according to the selected option from the Arrange toolbar
button. You can arrange thumbnails by Name, Date, Size (of the image file), or Type. Whenever
new documents are added to the work area, the thumbnails will be rearranged according to the
current setting of the Arrange option, with the new document occupying the appropriate place.
If the document cannot be rendered as a thumbnail, it will be shown in the work area in the
following manner:
The Thumbnails view
shows each file as a
thumbnail of the
actual file.
