MicrosoftAnnouncing New File Viewers Available for OneDrive For Business
Oddly enough, just this week I have had several users asking about the inability to launch/play .wav files directly from SP libraries, but it seems like that's about the only file extension not included in your list. Any chance to get that looked into - it seems as though if video files could be handled, then audio files could too.
Currently, the only viable workaround for users is to open the library in Windows Explorer and play the files from there, or download the files.
MicrosoftLet me share with engineering. Thanks for your post!
Great work guys give yoursleves a pat on the back.
One my customers always seem to struggle with is fillable PDF forms, any way to open fill and save/save as coming to SPO or Edge?

Hi Peter,
Glad you like the progress! :)
Thanks for the PDF suggestion, we'll look into it!
- Does this solve the issue when searching for Visio Files that this trigger a download instead of the viewer?
PeterWhitehouse -- I would be shocked if support for fillable PDFs came around. That's a big undertaking.... huge in fact, in the browser, not to mention that would directly conflict with PowerApps and Forms. That said, there's many times a client gives you a fillable PDF and you're expected to fill it out...
I think if I could get rid of PDFs and printers I would gain 10 years to my lifespan.
Hi Clint Lechner ,
I have some clients that specialize in wills & lasting power of attorney that use HMRC provided fillable PDF forms every day. They use Foxit Reader to check in/out these forms to save them to sharepoint but every now & again they have issues with saving them back to sharepoint.
- Thank you Stephen, Let me know if more details are needed about this.
