WorldClient's themes support document sharing using Documents Folders. Documents Folders are like other shared folders in that you can give other WorldClient users access to them. You can set the access permissions separately for each user and set the level to: Full Control, Editor, Reader, or No Access. Further, you can create any number of these folders and use them to store or share any types of files. You can upload files to your documents folders using the built-in tools. Additionally, when using the LookOut or WorldClient theme, browsers that support HTML5's Drag and Drop features, such as the latest versions of Chrome and Firefox, can also upload files by dragging them from the desktop into the browser window. Filenames can be searched and renamed, and files can be attached to new messages that are being composed.
Uploading a File
To upload a file to a documents folder:
1. | Click Documents to switch to the default documents folder. If you wish to upload the document to a different folder, click the desired documents folder in the Folder List. |
2. | Click Browse or Choose a File on the toolbar. |
3. | Use the Choose File to Upload dialog to navigate to the file you wish to upload, and click Open. |
4. | If the documents folder already contains a file of the same name and you wish to replace that file, check the box marked "Replace existing". If this box is unchecked and a file of the same name already exists, the new file will be uploaded with a slightly different name. |
Downloading or Opening a File
To download or open a file, click the filename in the list. If you are using Google Chrome as your browser you can optionally drag and drop the file to your computer to download it.
Renaming a File
To rename a file in a documents folder:
1. | Click Documents to switch to the default documents folder, or choose a different Documents Folder in the Folder List. |
2. | Click Rename in the row of the file you wish to rename. If you do not see the Rename column, use the Columns option to make it visible. |

Attaching Files to a Message
To attach one or more of the files contained in a documents folder to a new message (LookOut and WorldClient themes only):
1. | Click Documents to switch to the default documents folder, or choose a different Documents Folder in the Folder List. |
