Shinydrive Icon Overlays

Shinydrive uses icon overlays to inform users about the state of files.

Occasionally, users who work in both on-premise and Microsoft 365 versions of Office may notice a disruption to the full Shinydrive icon overlay experience. For example, on startup, OneDrive icons consistently replace Shinydrive icons.

Overlay Icon

Description

Windows Registry Entry

This icon overlay indicates that the file does not exist in Content Server. This symbol appears for new files created via drag-and-drop. Refresh your Windows Explorer view.  The icon overlay will disappear when the file has been successfully added to Content Server. 

NOTE:

  • Shinydrive will not add files on the “Forbidden” list to Content Server via drag-and-drop, so the document icons always appear with this overlay.

  • Shinydrive will not add any file that is not included on the "Allowed" list to Content Server. Files that are not yet registered will always appear with this overlay.

ShinydriveUnmanagedFile

This icon overlay indicates that the file is only available to view in Read Only format. Documents that are currently reserved by another user will appear with this overlay. 

ShinydriveReservedBySomeoneElse

This icon overlay indicates the file is currently reserved by you as the authenticated user. You can simply right click the file and select “Unreserve” and the icon overlay will disappear.

ShinydriveReservedByMe

This icon overlay indicates that there was an error with your file. It’s likely that there is an entry in the Shinydrive logs indicating why there was an error.

Shinydrive_Error

This icon overlay indicated that the latest known version of the file has not been downloaded locally.

Shinydrive_NoLocal

This icon overlay indicates the latest known version of the file has been downloaded locally.

Shinydrive_Local

This icon overlay indicates that the file is pending a sync with your ECM.
