settings to Launch extrenal files

I am using Launch action to display some pdf files on a button click. Launch action has two settings: File name and path. In the path I have something like this: NavigatorDocuments\ArchitecturalDiagrams  where NavigatorDocuments is a sub - folder of the place where main  qvb file is. All is working correctly

When I place the file in the server (using built in web server) the file can not be found in the sub folder NavigatorDocuments. It looks like the QV does not even try to look at this directory and ignores Path setting. Instead web server tries to find it C:\Program Files\QlikView\Server\QlikViewClients\QlikViewAjax

I want both desktop and web sever looking for these documents at the same place. How do I set it up?

Thank you

I think you can set and identical folder structure for both desktop and webserver and then set the path using the wildcards for the root folder:

Something like this

%DefaultFolder%\FolderPah\FileName.pdf
