    Hi @iliaftk ,

    You can get a thumbnail of an image file attached - I have a blog describing the process and also how to open it. This however will not render PDF or Word documents etc.

    Hey Sir, @WarrenBelz 

     

    Has there been any improvements since then? You know using thumbnail of a library document, a workaround is leveraged to show docx, xlsx type of documents in PDF Viewer component of PowerApps via the process described in Reza Dorani's video,  youtube.com/watch?v=vqK29FWbLxU  But list attachments does not have a property called thumbnail. Is there a similar creative workaround to show docx, xlxs which are list attachments in the PDF Viewer? Getpreview even with resolution=6 does not return a legible view on Image. Thanks

    @ardakandirali39 ,

    Not in the PDF viewer, but the third item in this blog of mine may be helpful to you in an Image control.
