Send Word as PDF?

Hi Christian
A few minutes ago a customer asked me the same question.
We also miss that menu-item. The menu item "Windows Commands" -> "Send To" is no option for us.
Best regards
Stefan

Look like this is a "bad" improvement #90992 https://www.m-files.com/customers/m-files-online-release-notes/

Yes, not happy at all with this "improvement"

yes we also used this function a lot and we practically had our customers with with torches and pitchforks in our office after having updated to 24.1

Hi everyone,

The BuiltinCommand named "BuiltinCommand_SendPDFByEmail" still works. When creating a client application, you can simply call this command.

On GitHub, there is an example for built-in commands:

    return function () {

        shellFrame.Commands.AddCustomCommandToMenu(command1, MenuLocation_ContextMenu_Bottom, 0);
        shellFrame.Commands.Events.Register(Event_CustomCommand, function (command) {
            if (command == command1) {
                shellFrame.Commands.ExecuteCommand(BuiltinCommand_SendPDFByEmail, null);
            }
        });
    };
