Drawing Previews

Hello. I would like to browse my drawings contained within the working directory before opening, but unfortunately when I click on each drawing no preview is available, so i end up opening drawings just to see the contents. Any help greatly appreciated.

Martin.

Thanks, just the ticket!

I found this very helpful also; however, when I check-in to intralink,

*.pic does not check in. Is there some setting to add in order to check the *.pic in to intralink. And when I look at the common space from within pro (loaded from within intralink) I can't see parts or assemblies or drawings, you know the image as spoken about above. Is it meant to happen like that?

Rather than trying to check in the exported picture file, set the save_drawing_picture_file option to EMBED. The preview graphic is saved inside the drawing file. No worries about 'check-in'.

OK, I see what you mean about the EMBED for drawings. NOW what about the second half of my question. The browsing still does not work in Intralink.
