[Autogenerated] Hi and this? Listen, I'm
going to show you how to preview library
documents here in SharePoint. Let's go to
our documents. Library. Now, we have a lot
of documents in here, and we see they're
just kind of presented in list. Sometimes
it might be useful to preview the document
without necessarily opening it inward. And
this might be especially helpful if you're
not on your own computer. Let's go ahead
and take a look. I'm gonna pick the first
job here. The accountant job description
is first document. And you see, I have
these ellipses and it says show actions
when I hover over them, it gives me more
options, more things to do with these
documents. I'm gonna go ahead. I'm gonna
click on that and we get a big list here.
And you see, the first thing is open and
that can open the document either inward
online or in the desktop version of word.
But what we're gonna do is click on
preview. Now, when I do that, it opens the
document, but only in a preview mode. Look
at the top here. There are no editing
tools at all. This is not Microsoft word
It's just SharePoint giving us a preview
of this document. I can look at it. I can
read it. I can, you know, increase the
magnification. If it's too small for me to
read and I want a zero in on something and
if it's multiple pages, this up and down
arrow will take us back and forth. This
one's only one page, but this is a
preview. I can't edit it or do anything
with it other than these links appear like
share it. Copy the link downloaded,
deleted check, accessibility mode or copy
it to or look at the version history. Now,
if I did want to open it inward, I have
the option over here. And if I click on it
again the same options word online or word
on my computer. But I don't want to do
either. I want to just click the back
button and go back to my document library.
Now, that's how you can get a full preview
of a document. But I'm going to show you
something else. Let's come over here to
the right. You see where it says all
documents. If we go ahead and click on
this, we get a menu with lots of options.
But if you go to the tiles option, look
what it says. View items with tile
previews. This is another way to kind of
get a very small preview off all of the
documents in the library. We're gonna
click that and see that look at that. It's
giving us a little preview of each of
these documents now. Granted, they're very
small and you can't read them. But if
the's were, say, Excel workbooks or Power
Point presentations, the previews might
give you a little bit more information
that might be a little bit easier to see
what's going on with those documents. You
can also hover over the document and you
get some information here. It shows us
things like the name of the document
document file extension, how many views We
have this option to share it. It tells me
when this was created and it was created
by Gary Coulson. But watch what happens
here If I click on see details, it opens
up the information panel here on the
right, and now I can Actually, it's still
pretty small, and I don't see all of it,
although I'll show you a trick. I can make
that details panel a little bit bigger. I
can kind of go through and look at the
preview that way as well. And it also
shows me who has access to this file and
again a little bit more information, some
properties, activities and all of that
kind of information as well. When I'm done
with that, I can click up here to close
the details pain. And I can always go back
to viewing my documents in the list style.
So that is how you can preview documents
in a SharePoint library. Thanks for listening, and I'll see you next time.
