Determin a file Release number AC11, AC10,...

Anonymous
Not applicable
We are looking for a way to identify what release an ArchiCAd file has been saved as, without opening the file!

On the MAC the icon for a .pln file saved in AC10 shows the application's icon on the .pln icon image. However in AC11 the same image of the AC10 icon appears in the .pln icon image.

Anyone know of a way to see file release of the saved file. or is there a way to change the image that AC11 places as the icon for a .pln file?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Just noticed this for Mac OS 10.8

"Quick Look/Preview"
Selecting the file and hitting the spacebar shows the version.

...and "Get info" seems to work again with AC17 files
(Not sure if the change is due to AC version or Mac OS).

EDIT:
"Preview" doesn't work on every file.

Similar for OSX10.6.8 with Get Info, Quick Look/Preview does not have the version number.

We DO NOT see the version number ever in Get Info. OSX 10.8 AC17. We do get it most of the time in Quick Look. It's interesting, we don't get any of that info under the more info tab, just last opened. Could it have something to do with the way the server is configured, all our files are stored on a server.
