Attachment Viewer
Attachment Viewer offers a single consolidated view of all the attachments received. This mainly addresses the issue of attachment disorder due to numerous emails and forwards.
Centralized view

- Images
- Documents
- Media Files

- Other types

Hover over the attachments to perform the following actions:
- Open linked email - You can open the email/task/post related to the attachment using this option.

Click the More options icon to view the other actions you can do: add the attachment to email, note or task, apply tags, Download, hide, or print the attachments, etc.
File Preview
You can select any thumbnail to preview the attachments. They can be previewed directly without having to download the entire attachments. Also, if the files attached are Documents/ Spreadsheets or Presentations, you can directly view the attachments using the embedded Writer/ Sheet/ Show applications.
The attachment viewer can also be used to directly preview the media files, in case you receive a video or audio file attachment. Only the compressed files and certain other types of files need to be downloaded to view them. Such attachments cannot be previewed.

Using Quick Actions, you can mark an attachment as a favorite, directly open the linked email, send a new email with the attachment, or add a tag to the attachment from the thumbnail view itself.
All the quick actions are also available in the Preview Attachment mode. Further, you can search and list the other attachments from the sender or list all the attachments of the same type from the Preview mode.
