Hi,
I want to use thumbnails of various PDF's in my gallery, and when selected use a larger PDF viewer to display the selected document. How can I do this? As of yet I am unable to find a way to use a PDF in the gallery.
Thanks
Hi @Anonymous
I have tried to insert a pdf viewer in a gallery, but it does not seem to be allowed.
We would need a 'pdf thumbnail viewer' control, that displays a thumbnail of a pdf, but there is no such thing at the moment. Maybe you cold suggest one in the ideas section.
The alternative is of course to have a place where you store the thumbnails as images and just add the image control to the gallery. But if your pdfs change, you need to reflect those changes in the thumbnails.
Instead of using an image in the gallery I chose to use the document title instead which when selected displays the chosen document. This seems to be working well.
Thanks for your help @Meneghino
