RBCQuickLook Class is a free REALbasic Class (for premium accounts users) that allows you to use Quick Look preview feature developed by Apple in your REALbasic application. The Quick Look technology is implemented throughout Mac OS X v10.5+.
Quick Look allows users to look at the contents of a file in the Finder at full or near-full size, depending on the size of the document relative to the desktop. It can view files including, but not limited to: PDFs, HTML, QuickTime readable media, ASCII and RTF text documents, Apple Keynote, Pages and Numbers, ODF documents, Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint files (including OOXML), RAW camera images.
Here is a example how to use RBCQuickLook Class in our REALbasic project. Of course you can access any files types supported by Quick Look. Enjoy it!
