Please note: Worldox GX3 brings additional changes - including a renamed Viewer document tab - made since this topic was written. So illustrations and references here may not match what you see on GX3 screens and dialogs. If you have questions on recent changes, please contact Technical Support.
• Overview
• Demonstrating how to resize/rearrange Preview panes
• Navigating worklists via Preview tab buttons
In previous Worldox versions, the Preview tab had only one viewing pane. In GX2, you have up to three. Here is the enhanced Preview tab (renamed in GX3 to Viewer), showing all three panes in use. How Preview panes display - and how documents display within each pane - is completely customizable. The multi-pane approach also gives you an alternate way to move through work lists.
Tip: In the GX2 Productivity Suite, you may see "click to view" links rather than thumbnail previews for certain file types on the Preview tab. |
Here's a quick, visual tutorial for using the new Preview tab.
Get a worklist on-screen. Any worklist will do, as long as it has three or more files listed.
Click the Preview tab on the tab row at the bottom right of the Worldox window. That opens the Preview (Viewer in GX3) tab to whatever settings were last used or saved. Up to three preview panes can display here. How many you see depends on saved view settings, and on which listing is selected from the worklist above.
Note: This
tab displays either the name Preview
or the Preview 
icon, depending on screen width.
• Here the first worklist item is highlighted (selected) as the tab opens:
That document displays in the center pane. With no other items above it on the list, there is no "previous" listing, so no left-side preview pane.
• Here is how that same tab looks with the next listing down selected on the worklist:
• Here is how panes display with the last item on the worklist selected:
Click the Tutorial
button in the toolbar above
the center preview pane. (If it is not visible on the right side of that
toolbar, try expanding the Worldox application window, or hiding the path
tree.) That opens the Sizing
Demo dialog, which provides instructions for resizing Preview tab panes.
To resize the center pane.
Right-click anywhere within the center preview pane. Holding the right-click button down, drag RIGHT. That expands the center pane.
Right-click and drag RIGHT again, until the two side panes disappear.
Now right-click in that center pane again and drag LEFT, to make the side-panels reappear.
Save your settings.
Click the Display
> Set View Defaults 
button above the center
pane. That opens the Set View Defaults dialog.
In the Set View Defaults dialog, click the Save width of center panel checkbox to select it, then click OK. These saved settings now become your new “default” display.
With all three panes visible in the Preview tab, the center pane shows the item highlighted (selected) in the worklist above.
• Click the
Select 
button
in the toolbar above either side pane to move the highlighting in the
worklist above; that also moves the selected document from that side pane
to the center pane.
• Clicking
the up arrow 
or down arrow 
above
the center pane has a similar effect, moving the worklist highlight up
or down, placing whichever document is selected in the center pane.
