How do I open PDF and JPG in new window in sap.m.UploadCollection

[Former Member]

Hi,

I'm using sap.m.UploadCollection to upload documents. It all works fine. File's being uploaded, and they are shown in the list.

When I click on the link in the list the file is downloaded again.  The only issue is this;

When I click on a text file, an image file or a PDF file,  it opens in the same browser window. Is there a way to open the link from sap.m.UploadCollection in a new browser window?

For an example I refer to the example in the SAPui5 SDK - Demokit:

https://sapui5.hana.ondemand.com/sdk/explored.html#/sample/sap.m.sample.UploadCollection/preview

If you click on a text-file or pdf-file you'll see it will open in the same browser window.

with regards,

Michael Visser

interesting, in 1.26.6 it is

oFileNameLabel = new sap.m.Link(sItemId + "-ta_filenameHL", {
  text : sFileNameLong,
  enabled : bEnabled,
  href : oItem.getUrl()
}).addStyleClass("sapMUCFileName");

and in 1.28.1 it is

oFileNameLabel = new sap.m.Link(sItemId + "-ta_filenameHL", {
  text : sFileNameLong,
  enabled : bEnabled,
  target : "_blank",
  href : oItem.getUrl()
}).addStyleClass("sapMUCFileName");

so, while you are not on 1.28 you can do a trick

  oUploadCollection.addDelegate({
            onAfterRendering: function () {
              $( ".sapMUCFileName" ).attr("target", "_blank");
             }
  });
