Do you mean view document whilst editing the content or the metadata?

Hi johnson,

I mean editing the metadata.

You need to create an extension. To do this you create a Eclipse project which has only 3 "active" files. The 2 files ending -preview are XML, and the file edit-metadata.txt should be edit-metadata.ftl.

I have attached the files and a picture of the required project layout. This works on 4.2c so it should work on 4.2e
