Question

Default the "View Document Options" to Tiffs in Weblink8

WebLink

Hello,

I am working with a client that has both PDFs and TIffs in their repository, but they are interested in just having the Tiffs pull up instead of the PDF when browsing through Weblink 8. There is an option under My Weblink options which allows for this to be set on the current user and I believe the setting is saved into the cookies. My questions is there a way to default that option to TIffs instead of PDF so that every user does not have set that option and as well set it again if the cookies are clear out?

Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

The entry browser exposes a boolean property UseNativeViewer just for this purpose. You can see it being set on line 85 of Browse.aspx.vb. You can change that code and recompile. If you don't want to recompile, you should be able to overwrite that property similarly to how Wes1971 describes in the old forums.

If you want to approach it by setting that cookie for all of your users, the name is "DocOpenPreferences" and you want the value "NativeOpenEdoc="
