Hello everyone! I use MementoDB on both my computer (desktop version) and Android tablet. Regardless of the device (PC or tablet) I use, it seems that: - table with an attachments field - field populated with a PDF that I have locally - synchronisation - move to another device (PC or tablet) - synchronisation If, after synchronisation, without doing anything else, I put the device offline, I can see that the field contains the PDF, but when I try to open it, it doesn't open (a very quick dialogue box appears that I can't read). If, on the other hand, I don't put the device offline, I can see the field and open the PDF on the second device, at which point I can also open the PDF once I put the device offline. It is as if synchronisation does not actually copy the linked object, but only the reference to the object that remains on the Memento cloud. If I open it, it manages to download it to the local database, and at that point I can open it even if there is no internet connection. Have you noticed this? Thanks, Rugge

Hi. 
I have discovered that it appears that the PDF must be opened on the online device at least once before it can be accessed when the device is offline.

I am uncertain if this applies to all items.

Hallo
Die Daten die mit der Clode Synchronisiert werden sind erstmal in der Clode . Je nach Betarf werden sie auf den Lockalen Gerät geladen und geöffnet . Das heißt ich muss mir die Daten " holen " .

Hello
The data that is synchronized with the clone is initially in the clone. Depending on the need, it is loaded onto the local device and opened. This means I have to "fetch" the data.
