You have to include this section on your share-custom-config file


   <config evaluator="string-compare" condition="DocumentDetails">
      <document-details>
         <!– display web previewer on document details page –>
         <display-web-preview>true</display-web-preview>
      </document-details>
   </config>‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

The OOTB file defining that is share/WEB-INF/classes/alfresco/share-documentlibrary-config.xml

Thanks for reply.

By making these changes, it will show/hide preview from user.
But our requirement is to turn this preview on/off on user request.
If User wants to show the preview, it will preview documents by default but he sets preview to be turned off
it should be off for all docs in documentlibrary.
This should be done on onclick event of a link.

How to go about this?
