Popular Post halfcoupler Posted October 27, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 27, 2022 one of these daily miracles, that have never been disenchanted: Inserting a symbol from the resouce browser via drag & drop, or by using the import menue (right click on the symbol in the resouce browser) prompts you to keep folder hirachy in the resource manager (if not disabled by "Dont show this dialog again..."). Inserting via double click or symbol insertion tool sorts the symbol to the root directory of the resorce browser, no matter you want it there or not. Does that make sense? Shouldn't it alwas promt to keep hirachy ? Bug or feature ? Happens with VW 2022 and earlier, not yet tested in VW 2023. 5 Quote Link to comment
Tom W. Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 @halfcoupler thanks for pointing this out! It would definitely be good if the 'Import (Resources)' dialog came up across all instances of external resource selection. For example when I have a Wall selected + double-click on a Wall resource in my Favorites the dialog comes up. And if I have a 3D solid selected + I double-click on a texture in my Favorites it comes up. So strange that it doesn't come up when you double-click on a symbol. I hadn't realised this was happening + explains why suddenly I have resources all over the place in the RM for the active file that need reorganising! In a large file with loads of resources this can take several minutes to file everything away + be much better if it happened automatically i.e. if a symbol has multiple textures, records, etc - these should all automatically go into the relevant Resource Folders not have to be moved there manually afterwards... BTW it's the same in VW2023 3 Quote Link to comment
