UI-Element for Thumbnails

[Former Member]

Hi all,

i want to create a WD Application for showing different kinds of Documenttypes (Images, pdf, jpeg,word ...) as Thumbnails. My problem is, that i didn't find the appropriate UI-Element. I know that it's possible to use iFrame & Image, but I'm looking for only one UI-Element. Is that possible?

I don't want to use Interactive Forms.

regards,

Sharam

As you most probably want to assign an action to the thumbnails, you should use the IWDLinkToAction UI element instead of IWDImage.

Sharam,

What stops you from using Image UI control from WD or Caption (image + text) UI control?

Hi,

yes you are right we can show only image, but pdf and word docs can't be shown as thumbnails, there is no UI for this in WebDynpro

Sharam,

<i>i wand also show pdf or word-documents in my UI?</i>

You want to show complete documents or thumbnails???

In later case even IFrame doesn't help you. You need some library that will generate thumbnail image from documents...
