New Desktop UI Full Release Q&A

Hello

in the previous version of the user interface in the version history you can see the metadata of the document

but in the new UI i can't see the document metadata

How can I see the metadata in this new version of the user interface in the version history? 

In your posted screenshots, you are showing the metadata of the document. 

Can you elaborate on what do you want to see?

I can't see the hidden metadata like in the previous version history

With the new UI this will no longer be available. 

There are a few tweaks to disable Metadata card configuration.

For example: community.m-files.com/.../19932

I review the M-Files documentation on metadatacard but in the new versión UI 22.11.12033.2 tha value "MetadataCard" it doesn't exist in the regeit

M-Files documentation

regedit windows 10 M-Files Client version 22.11.12033.2

You should create the registry key if it doesn't yet exist.

Hello

Maybe this has been asked already somewhere, but just to be sure about the new UI and its metadata card behaviour:

Isn't it going to be possible to activate/see both the metadata card and the document preview at the same time like in the new Web client?

If it isn't possible now, is it somewhere on the roadmap to develop this feature also for the desktop client?

This is a very useful feature and especially in sales presentations an often asked question when presenting the desktop client.

Kind regards,

Dario

Thank you

Hello,

it is possible to get the metadata card to pop-out dynamically, so that it behaves like this:

1. Select an object from the listing and pop-out its metadata card (Alt+Enter or select "Popout metadata card from the metadata card ribbon).

2. In the popped out metadata card, open metadata and preview side by side by clicking the arrow icon on the top-right corner of the metadata card.

3. Select another object from the listing -> the popped out metadata card will reopen automatically.

To get the popped out metadata card to reopen dynamically, you need to change the following setting from the M-Files Admin client:

Configurations > Advanced Vault Settings > Configuration > Client > Desktop > Metadata card > Allow Single Metadata Card Popup Only = 'Yes'

We have had quite a lot of feedback around this issue, and we will definitely consider other ways to serve this need as well.

thx a lot Samuli!
