File attachment behaviour

Post by Mattes57 »

In Acrobat Reader, a single click on an attached file opens the info/comment window about that file. A double click will open the attached file.

In PDFXChange Viewer, a double click just opens the info/comment window (and marks the pdf as changed (filename*)). To open the attached file, it is necessary to use the context menu, or use the attachements pane.

I think the Acrobat behaviour is more user friendly, and I'd like to have the same behaviour in PDFXChange Viewer.

..a single click on an attached file opens the info/comment window about that file
We cannot reproduce this behavior for Acrobat Reader :wink:
..double click will open the attached file
We change viewer's behavior to this..

Mattes57,

I can confirm that in the test build I have double clicking now opens the attached file, but single click has the same effect as before - just selects the object.

I was able to reproduce the "Single Click opens popup" in adobe 8.1.6 on XP SP3 32bit.

Cheers,
Stefan
