Don't show attachment-preview on hover

Is it possible to deactivate the attachment-preview (e.g. for pdf-files) on hover in an email?

Best regards.

We would like to disable this feature at some users too. Is it possible, please?

If you don’t need to use the attachment preview, just “dblcheck the attachment” which will then directly open it.

Thats not gonna work if you want to save the file.
If it is a pdf-attachement, for some reason, other than with images or word-documents, the preview-image is immensely large and i have to move the mouse all the way down to the save-button (which is below the preview-image). If the preview-image does not load correctly the tooltip closes and i have to do it again.

Just right-click on the attachment and choose Save As.

I don’t want to download the attachment, I just want to disable this preview feature. Is it possible, please?

It’s quite simple really. If you don’t want to see the preview, don’t hover over the attachment.

I agree, I personally don’t have a problem with this feature. However, our director does and that is why I am asking for a clear answer if this feature can be turned off and possibly if it will be available in a future update.

I don’t believe there is anyway currently to completely disable the preview hover but @Gary will advise on that if there is.

Now If your director is worried about hovering over the pdf due to eg: virus / malware reasons, as @Gary advised in another thread, Quote: “The preview is sandboxed, so it’s ok”.

I’d like the ability to turn this off as well. When trying to delete attachments when forwarding an email the pop up preview gets in the way.
