Hi Tulip Community,

I’d like to suggest an improvement related to the “Open File” trigger action in Tulip Player.

Currently, when opening a file (for example, a PDF), a warning message appears every single time. While we understand the security intent, this becomes disruptive in production environments where operators frequently access trusted, internal documents like SOPs or reference PDFs.

What’s a bit confusing is that:

  • The warning does not appear when opening a folder

  • It always appears when opening a file

  • There’s no option to configure or suppress it

This leads to an inconsistent user experience and adds unnecessary clicks for operators during daily workflows.

An optional setting to:

  • Suppress the warning for trusted files or file types

  • Trust a file after first confirmation (per-app or per station)

  • Control this behavior at the app or Player level

This would greatly improve usability in controlled shop‑floor environments.
