Hi

I've been learning how to use the CNF and read everything I can find on the web, but I'm a bit stuck on what seems to be a really trivial thing - opening an editor by clicking on an element in CNF which is provided by a content extension. I want to be able to double-click the element and open that element in my editor.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

TIA

Hi,

if you use your own ContentNavogatorViewer you can override the
double-click method and call the Command for opening the editor.

Kind regards,

Simon
