How to Update files icons / add custom class / change file template

[iMarrero]

Hello ,

Control: FileExplorer, Version: 16.1.26

Id would like to change the aspect of the files thumbs dynamically according with the file created date:

If created date is TODAY, add a css class to print a label over the Icon like "NEW!"

If created date less than 7 days ago, add a css class to print a label over the Icon like "RECENT!"

So the first question is: 

- Has the control any way to change how file thumbs are shown? any easy template system? So I can get all files and their properties in current view and change the view or wahtever.

If not, I can process the HMTL with jquery and use the 'title' property to get the created date and change DOM accordingly but:

- Is there is any "changeEvent()" / "viewChanged" or "afterRead()" where I can put the code and process current <li>s after any READ action?

Approach to capturing html <li> elements

Thank you very much!
