-

-
- : Explanation: just add the path before the name of your viewer (and don't
- : forget to put the %f on the argument line). So:
-
- : viewer: multiview
-
- : becomes...
-
- : viewer: SYS:Utilities/Multiview
-
- : MIRACLE!!! IT NOW WORKS!! ;-))
-
- : It is true for any other viewer you have configured in your preferences.
-
- : Have fun with the _great_ IBrowse!!

- Thanks all for your responses to my question. I am indeed aware of the
- need for fully designating the path for Multiview and have done so and
- have been sure to include the %f on the line.. What
- I find is happening is the gif/jpeg image is being stored in the Temp.
- directory but that the external viewer is not being called. Any ideas as
- to why?
-
- Thanks again
