      Hello

      I have asked a question before, but I think I didn't make it clear. So I will try to clarify it.

      I need to categorize the attached files. so is it possible to extend the documentlist.EC.uicomponent with new drop down list which contains all the categories, so when I click on the attached file, The related category will be shown?

      Thanks a lot for your help.
