Options Dropped Folders page

You can drag folders that contain files to a Content Manager window to check in the files as electronic documents or attach them to an existing record.

You can use this function to check in multiple files.

The Dropped Folders page enables you to set the defaults for this function.

  • When a folder is dropped onto Content Manager, show - by default, Content Manager does not automatically check in files of certain types.

    Select them here for Content Manager to check them in:

    • Hidden Files - files hidden by the operating system
    • System Files - files used by the operating system
    • Content Manager reference files - shortcuts to objects in a Content Manager dataset (*.tr5)
    • Binary files (exe, dll, obj) - application files
    • Rendition files (ann, ocr, dsg) - file extensions of various formats, i.e. alternative copies of documents in different formats
  • Restrict to document types that match - alternatively, you can enter the extension of the types of files you want Content Manager to process.

    If you do not enter anything in this field, Content Manager will check in all file types except those not selected above.
