Order would be preserved such that the first file dropped would always be bdsk-file-1 (ideally they'd be user-defined...but rearranging isn't implemented). I was thinking something like a toggle would be useful to switch between the user's preferred display and a file display, which might obviate the need to icons in the table column? It would be pretty handy for gathering up all files for the selected references. I've also wondered about a list view; at that point, we're basically reimplementing Finder to look at a flat directory. > BTW, you can also add icon attachment in the template preview (use > the rtfd template). Yeah, I experimented with that, and I think adding icons with the URL links might be okay by default. Before creating my custom view, I tried a custom attachment cell subclass that displays thumbnails in the textview, but it used memory like crazy. It's also amusing to see PDF files each displayed in their own scrollview inside the attributed textview, which is easy with text attachments. -- Adam ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
