Edit Metadata + Viewer

cmarguello

Hi,
In most of cases, metadata are data from the documents (in my case), so when i edit the metadata y want to view the document.
So, how can i add the web-preview in edit-metadata form? like in document details.

Thanks.

Need to write below code in "edit-metadata.ftl" (under "tomcat\webapps\share\WEB-INF\classes\alfresco\templates\org\alfresco" folder).

<#if (config.scoped['DocumentDetails']['document-details'].getChildValue('display-web-preview') == "true")>
<@region id=doclibType + "web-preview" scope="template" protected=true />
</#if>

You might need to do some adjustments to perform UI alignment.

Thanks shahsnehal
I put the code you mention:

<#include "include/alfresco-template.ftl" />
<@templateHeader />

<@templateBody>
   <div id="alf-hd">
      <@region id=appType + "header" scope="global" protected=true />
      <@region id=appType + doclibType + "title" scope="template" protected=true />
      <@region id=appType + doclibType + "navigation" scope="template" protected=true />
   </div>
   <div id="bd">
      <div class="share-form">
         <@region id=doclibType + "edit-metadata-mgr" scope="template" protected=true />
    <#if (config.scoped['DocumentDetails']['document-details'].getChildValue('display-web-preview') == "true")>
      <@region id=doclibType + "web-preview" scope="template" protected=true />
     </#if>
         <@region id=doclibType + "edit-metadata" scope="template" protected=true /> 
      </div>
   </div>
</@>

<@templateFooter>
   <div id="alf-ft">
      <@region id="footer" scope="global" protected=true />
   </div>
</@>
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

But the code generated is this:

<div id="unbound-region-web-preview"></div>‍‍

I added too the same templateHeader like document-details.ftl but nothing happends

<@templateHeader>
   <@link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="${url.context}/res/components/blog/postview.css" />
   <@script type="text/javascript" src="${page.url.context}/res/components/blog/blogdiscussions-common.js"></@script>
   <@script type="text/javascript" src="${page.url.context}/res/components/blog/blog-common.js"></@script>
   <@script type="text/javascript" src="${url.context}/res/modules/documentlibrary/doclib-actions.js"></@script>
   <@script type="text/javascript" src="${page.url.context}/res/templates/document-details/document-details.js"></@script>
   <#if doclibType?starts_with("dod5015")><@script type="text/javascript" src="${page.url.context}/res/templates/document-details/dod5015-document-details.js"></@script></#if>
   <@templateHtmlEditorAssets />
</@>‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

The log dont show any error.
I dont know what happend.
I test eliminating the if clause, and the same.
Im testing with pdf that in document-details the preview works.

Any Idea about what this dont works?

Thanks Again.

It is good that you made an entry for header. That is also needed. Apart from those entry, you need to put following content in "edit-metadata.xml' (tomcat\webapps\share\WEB-INF\classes\alfresco\site-data\template-instances)

<!– web-preview: normal & repository –>
      <component>
         <region-id>web-preview</region-id>
         <url>/components/preview/web-preview</url>
         <properties>
            <nodeRef>{nodeRef}</nodeRef>
            <disableI18nInputFix>false</disableI18nInputFix>
         </properties>
      </component>
      <component>
         <region-id>repo-web-preview</region-id>
         <url>/components/preview/web-preview</url>
         <properties>
            <nodeRef>{nodeRef}</nodeRef>
            <disableI18nInputFix>false</disableI18nInputFix>
         </properties>
      </component>‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

This should work fine. It worked for me in Alfresco 3.3.4/3.4

cmarguello

Thanks!!!!
This works perfect!!!!
