Rooted Folders in Repository

Post by atom » Wed Jul 15, 2009 4:56 pm

Hiya

It seems you can only go 1 level deep for rooted folders in the repository
e.g. the following is impossible:

- <app folder> MyApplication
- <rooted folder> MyWindow
- <rooted folder> A container in the window

When i select a rooted folder, the create new rooted folder button is disabled
Why is that ?!

Regards

Hi,

There is currently no support for nested rooted folders, so you always have to
have a structure like this:

appfolder -> rooted folder [optional] -> item

We already had that feature in the 2.0 preview releases (in a slightly different form) and we removed it because it seemed to confuse people.

So everybody who wants nested rooted folders back, please post here :)

It would be handy to have the same structure in the repository as you see in the spy tool
What would also be handy is to be able to drag&drop rooted folders

Anyway people... you heard the man.... press your buttons now!
