File Viewer

The File Viewer has been created using the ViewerComponent from the ADF. The Viewer has four main areas:

Header & Toolbar (1)

The Header & Toolbar section of the viewer contains a number of features that relate to the file currently being displayed:

  • Close 'X' will return the user to the folder that contains the file.
  • The name and file type icon is shown in the middle.
  • Next and previous buttons will be displayed either side of the file name so that users can navigate to other files in the folder without navigating away from the viewer.
  • Finally, on the right hand side an actions toolbar provides users with the ability to download, favorite, move, copy, delete, manage versions and view info panel.

Content (2)

The File Viewer consists of four separate views that handle displaying the content based on four types of content, covering various file/mime types:

  • Document View: PDFs are displayed in the application File Viewer, for other document types (DOCX etc) then a PDF rendition is automatically retrieved.
  • Image View: JPEG, PNG, GIF, BMP and SVG images are natively displayed in the application File Viewer.
  • Media View: MP4, MP3, WAV, OGG and WEBM files are played natively application File Viewer. The File Viewer will download, by default, 50MB of the content at a time to ensure a smooth playback of the content.
  • Text View: TXT, XML, JS, HTML, JSON and TS files are natively displayed as text in the application File Viewer.

Thumbnails side pane (3)

The Document View includes a thumbnails pane which can be activated by a button in the Viewer Actions toolbar. Clicking on a thumbnail will take a user directly to the selected page and as users scroll through a document the current page is highlighted in the pane.
