The Custom Previews plugin adds a special preview functionality to the asset context menu for its supported file extensions. The goal is to provide a better user experience for the file extensions where the standard JPG image shown by Celum is not suitable or not the desired behavior.
The label for the key of the menu item is customPreviews.menuTitle and can be customized via the {home}/appserver/lang/customMessages_xx.properties files.
To be configured in {home}/appserver/conf/custom.properties.
