Viewing and Editing with Document Thumbnails

Images of document pages are displayed in the Thumbnails panel, located on the left-hand side of the Document Viewer. This is particularly useful for navigation, if there are multiple pages to a document or when editing the pages of a document. Document thumbnails are enabled by default but may be turned off by the user if preferred by unchecking the box under General Settings on the Document View User Settings


Reordering Pages with Thumbnails

To reorder the pages of a document, click the thumbnail page to be moved and while holding the mouse button down, drag it to the desired location.  Note that you can only drag and drop reorder a single page.  If multiple thumbnails are checked in the Thumbnail panel, only the one clicked and dragged will move.

Document Actions Via Thumbnails

The Thumbnail panel may be used to perform a number actions beyond navigation and ordering. Double click on a thumbnail to select that page for editing or click the box to the left of each image to select multiple files. By clicking the ellipsis at the lower right of the thumbnail panel to expose the available document editing actions. 

Jump To Page - Simply click on any document thumbnail to jump to that page of the document.

Insert Page - To insert a page or pages into the current document, select the page and then either scan in the new pages or select a file to be added. GlobalSearch will always insert any pages BEFORE the selected thumbnail.
