Preview

  • Preview Window: In addition to the small Preview Window in the Details Pane, many, but not all, file types can be previewed by pressing Space, which pops up a larger window with a preview of the file in question. You can move through the document being previewed with the mouse wheel or by clicking the / buttons at the left/right of the Preview Window.
  • Closing Preview Window: The Preview Window is closed by pressing Space or Esc.
  • Choosing viewer: You can choose between the viewer built into One Commander, or QuickLook (available from the Micosoft Store). QuickLook can work with a greater range of file types.
  • Viewing modes: The Preview Window offers three viewing modes: . One Commander will guess which one works best for the file in question, but if you disagree, click one of the other buttons to see if you're right.
  • Autoplay audio/video files: You can choose to autoplay video/audio files or not in the Preview Window.
  • Viewing multiple files in a folder: Once you're viewing a file in the Preview Window, cursor up/down moves to the previous/next file in the folder.
  • Showing GPS coordinates: If the file shown in the Preview has embedded GPS coordinates, a GPS button is shown. Clicking the button opens either Google or Bing Maps showing the location.
  • The Microsoft Store version of One Commander is not able to show previews of Microsoft Word or Excel files; it will, however, show an image preview if there is one embedded in the file. This limitation is imposed by Windows, which does not allow the necessary ActiveX components to run in Store apps.
