Several pdfs in one parent item - which one is chosen ?

tibr
Hi,
i hope this hasn't been discussed before, i couldn't find anything when searching the forums.

here's my problem:

I sometimes have one parent item with several pdf attached. When I double click on the parent item or when i select "view PDF", only one of them opens, which is fine. I'd just like to know if it's possible to chose which PDF will be open by default.

Thanks.

    Is it not the first one listed? Alphabetical? I think there's a logic to it, but I don't remember what.

    I just checked, it's not alphabetical, it's apparently the first pdf attached. It's a bit a bummer, because if you attach first the pdf that is not intended to be the "main pdf" (which happens for example when you attach the first unpublished version of a paper, waiting for the published version), you then have to manually delete the pdf that you don't want to be open by default, to re-import it again... I know it's a bit of a detail, but it would still be great to have an option to specify which document will be opened when double clicking on the item...
