Adding to Office file type

[acheton]

Hi there,

I want to add a new extension to the "office files" find files type filter. According to the help file I can adjust some of these in the Previewed Formats section - however in this section office documents are lumped together with Web. Is there any easy way of adding a file type to this filter or even adding a new custom filter please?

thanks,

Try this tweak:

Code: Select all

OfficePreviewCustomExtensions=...

What file type is it?

Thanks for the quick reply - I want to add *.pdf to the list (I know its not a MS Office extension). I haver added this tweak to the config file under the general section in both of the following ways and neither works:

Code: Select all

OfficePreviewCustomExtensions=*.pdf

Code: Select all

OfficePreviewCustomExtensions=pdf

am I doing it right?

This works fine here:

Code: Select all

OfficePreviewCustomExtensions=pdf

You know how to tweak?

You know how to tweak?

The steps I am taking are:

1. Opening the config file
2. Adding the line requested and saving the file
3. selecting restart without saving to load the revised config file

Is that all I need to do?
