#REDIRECT [[Documents (UBIK Android)]]
[[Document|Documents]] are [[UBIK]] [[UBIK Object|objects]] referencing a file, e.g. a PDF document.
+
Like other UBIK objects, they can be synchronized to the [[UBIK Android]] client.
+
The Android client provides various features related to documents.
+
 
+
 
+
== [[Document|Document]] Types in [[UBIK Android]] ==
+
 
+
* Managed Document - Documents with a locally managed file.
+
* Linked Document - Documents with a file linked by an URL, not locally managed by UBIK.
+
 
+
== Viewing [[Document|Documents]] in [[UBIK Android]] ==
+
 
+
=== Viewing the File ===
+
 
+
Documents can be viewed using the [[Content Browser (UBIK Android)|Content Browser]].
+
For every object, three content tabs are shown: "Children", "Properties" and "Documents".
+
The latter contains a thumbnail grid view for all document-type children of the current object.
+
 
+
A click on such a thumbnail shows the document if it was already downloaded.
+
Else, the document will be downloaded from the server and a dialog for showing it will be shown on success.
+
 
+
3rd party applications are used to show documents. Therefore, if no viewer for a certain file type (e.g. PDF) is installed, an error message will be shown.
+
 
+
=== Viewing the Object Data ===
+
 
+
Not only the file, but also the UBIK property values of a document object can be viewed.
+
To do so, the thumbnail has to be long-clicked.
+
Then, the property list view for the respective object will be opened, allowing the user to change values (if it was configured on the server).
+
 
+
== Creating [[Document|Documents]] in [[UBIK Android]] ==
+
 
+
Depending on the server configuration, documents can be created as children for existing objects.
+
A context menu entry appears in the [[Content Browser (UBIK Android)|Content Browser]] for creating objects if this is configured.
+
 
+
=== Taking a Picture ===
+
 
+
In certain cases, the camera can be used to take a picture and create a document for it - in this case, another "Take Picture" context menu entry is available.
+
 
+
=== Editing and Submitting the newly Created Document ===
+
 
+
After either a document was chosen or a picture was taken, the newly created object is opened in a Property view, allowing the user to abort the creation or to enter specific property values (e.g. for the name of the object) and finally save the object.
+
 
+
=== Synchronization ===
+
 
+
Depending on the connectivity mode, the next synchronization run will bring the new content and file to the server.
+
 
+
== Editing [[Document|Documents]] in [[UBIK Android]] ==
+
 
+
For editing, currently only [[Redlining (UBIK Android)|Redlining]] is possible.
+
 
+
=== Redlining ===
+
 
+
Redlining is the process of creating a new, adapted version of an existing document.
+
This can be achieved on the UBIK Android client, if it was configured correctly on the server.
+
A respective context menu button will be available in the Content Browser for a document object in this case.
+
 
+
For redlining, a copy of the document will be created and opened for editing in any installed 3rd party application that can handle the "intent".
+
When the user accepts the change, the creation of a new document object classified as a redlined document will be triggered (as described in "Creating Documents in UBIK Android").
