Working with files

Menu Documents2 min read

Right-clicking a file opens its menu:

The menu of a file
  • Add to favorites: puts it in your Favorites filter. Favourites are personal: everyone has their own.
  • Add tag: adds a label, for example "Official", visible in the Tags column.
  • Version history: see "The versions of a file".
  • Download: saves the file on your computer. Several items, or a folder, are downloaded as a documents.zip archive that keeps the folders.
  • Rename: the Rename window opens, already filled in with the current name. The file extension, for example .pdf, is kept even if you delete it. A name cannot contain a slash (/ or \).
  • Delete: moves the item to the trash.

The same actions exist in the toolbar, for one or more selected items.

Moving: drag one or more items onto a folder of the list, or onto a drive or a folder of the left column, then release.

Adding tags: select the files, click Add tag, choose or type the tags, then click Add. The chosen tags are added to those the files already have.

The grid view

The grid icon, at the top right, shows the folder as tiles, with a thumbnail for each image:

The grid view
  1. List or gridswitches between the two views.
  2. The thumbnailsone tile per image, with its name and its size.

My files and other people's

The right to edit or delete can cover all the files, or only your own, the ones you uploaded (Author column). With rights on your own files only, Rename and Delete stay greyed out on someone else's file; you can still open and download it.
