Embedded File Viewers
TeamWox has its own internal tool for viewing some types of files. The *.flv, *.mp3, image files, *.txt files, *.ics files of calendars are supported and *.eml files of emails. Thus, there is no need to use an external application to view them, and you can view them directly from the TeamWox window.
If you press with the left button of your mouse on the file (whether it be an attachment to a task/e-mail or a file uploaded in the "Documents" module), either the internal viewing window or the window with possible actions (in case the file type is not supported) will appear.
