Toolbar in TS screen , when an HTML file is selected

when I click on a DCR in UI, it opens in readonly mode. Now when I click on an HTML or XML or any other file in UI, a separate window opens up in which a toolbar comes up.
This toolbar has options "NewFormEntry", "Import", "Edit", "Upload", "More"

Does this toolbar apply to selected HTML file ?

When I click on "New Form ENtry" option, screen comes up with different data types screen. When I select a datatype, form for that particular datatype comes up, how does the selected HTML fileget associated with this datatype ?

What is the name of this toolbar ?

Hi,
Clicking the DCR will obviously show you the DCR content in readonly mode.
If you want to edit the DCR then use the edit button and save it once you are done.
Yes if you click XML files related to a particular datatype then these options as mentioned by you will come.
Regarding new form entry, if you will try to do new form entry from templatedata location then it will obviously give you all the options of categories/datatype;the correct way of doing data entry is to go to the relevant category/datatype and then do your content entry.
If you are in the relevant datatype then the corresponding form will open and nothing else.
For better understanding you can go through the TS pdfs.

You have answered what I know. My question is, are the options in toolbar related to selected file ? If not, then why is this toolbar coming up ?

It does not comeup when I click on JSP file. Whats the purpose of this toolbar ?

Thanks

It will not come up for a jsp or even for a .cfg file.
To be specific to your question, yes it is related to specific file types only e.g., .xml , .txt, .html. .js, etc extensions.
One of the reason I know of this behavior is that as these files are not configured automatically to open in a read only mode and so to give user the flexibility of options this toolbar is provided.
Once the toolbar is there the user can edit the file there itself.
It is for user assistance only.
Though it will be wrong on my part to comment as I have not done this at my end but I feel that we can customize this for other extensions too.
Hopefully I will try and update the thread if I find something.

This stuff goes under two names, "Smart Context Editor" or SCE for short and "Visual Preview toolbar".

iwproxy injects it when you view the file that your Virtualization Server "does not know how" (read "is not configured")
to render. Toolbar actions are mostly File related, like for example "download". Few actions (New Form, Import) are
generic and if followed provide no relations to the original File.

You can configure your proxy server to inject/not inject the toolbar. iw.cfg section is [iwproxy_smartcontextedit_allowed].
There are few threads discussing it, see for example [post=155525]here[/post].
