Cannot disable PDF icon in Portfolio in left panel

Question

I have read through every post about this and they seem very similar to my issue however, I cannot, for my life, get a simple list of PDFs included in the left hand panel of Portfolio without the PDF icon. Oddly, I get the list that I would like if I change it to Top View from Portfolio Properties (see second image), but I want that view on the left.

I have done this is Windows Explorer:

Edit > Preferences > General.

- I made sure the setting "Enable PDF thumbnail previews in Windows Explorer" was unchecked.

I have done this is Portfolion Properties and tried F4 options. the options are in the next panel for that panel only.

If someone has more than 4 assets in the portfolio, you can't see them all. I am sure and hopeful that I am missing something simple. THANK YOU in advance.

Hi there

Hope you're doing well, and thanks for reaching out.

This is the expected behavior when using the Classic Viewer (the old interface). Unfortunately, there's no way to hide the PDF icon in a PDF Portfolio. But you can scroll down to see the rest of the files in the list.

If you’d like a better viewing experience, you can switch to the Modern Viewer (the new interface). Just go to the View tab, select Enable New Acrobat, and then restart your device. The new interface makes it easier to manage and view long lists of files in a PDF Portfolio.

Hope this helps.
