Unable to show a document as a link rather than thumbnail?

[Jasmine.Hatherly]

I have added a document (have tried both Word and PDF) to a confluence page - on previous versions of Confluence, if I clicked the document on the page, it would give me the option to 'show as link', but this is no longer an option. Does any one know why or if I'm missing something on the newer version? Thanks

Hey there! Are you on Cloud or Server? 

This seems to be a new issue with the editor in Confluence Cloud: https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Confluence-questions/Documents-Show-as-LINK-vs-THUMBNAIL/qaq-p/1255952
