Moving Detail Folder & subfolders

We have not yet implemented that, because it could affect hundreds, even thousands of details. And if any user has just one detail open, it would have to remain in the old structure, with all the others moved to the new location. Still, we do intend on adding this capability, probably early next year.
In the meantime, you would need to move one detail at a time to the new location.

We're looking to restructure our detail library, has this idea of being able to move detail folders around been implemented within Land F/X? Is moving one detail at a time still the most efficient way to accomplish this?

Pono,

 

Yes!  This has been implemented, in the Projects Organization tab.  There, you can move detail folders around.  I would definitely recommend starting with a small or test project, and confirm that all is well.  The number of things that can go wrong with this operation are staggering.  But assuming that all details in the project are still valid, and none of them are currently open, the system will dutifully move and rename all relevant details and their references.

Jeremiah,

Are there any past webinars or any online tutorial documents that walk us through this process? I'm trying to move a test project but I do not receive any prompts or see any action when moving a project's detail folder to a new location.

Pono,

 

Argh, you are right.  Something is not firing there.  I'll look into it, and get it implemented for the update scheduled a week from today.

No worries, Thank you for the update Jeremiah!

 

And what should be the last update.

A lot was able to get accomplished this week.  But primarily discovering, that the previous code for editing an existing detail folder had a lot of issues.   So it was good to discover that!  But it also meant that a lot of code still needs to be re-written.

Most of the work has been done, and this will be complete for next week's update.  So we are very close!

This posted with the update today.

Only available from the Projects Organization tab.  We will roll this out to the Detail Explorer at a later date.
