0.64 x64 Linux: Refresh Subdir List

Post by yossic00 »

Hi,

I'm using MP with an NFS mounted filesystem. When adding a sub directory to an existing directory MP doesn't detect it and doesn't refresh the directory list (I also tried pressing F5, didn't work); I think this might be related to NFS not always updating the directory access times. Currently my only option is to exit and rerun MP.

I suggest that when pressing F5, MP will search for new sub directories under the currently selected directory in the browser.

Thanks,
Yossi

A manual refresh is needed for many other reasons. See here: http://newsgroup.xnview.com/viewtopic.php?f=62&t=29313

I've encountered the issue with NFS as in Network File System; not the windows NTFS.

Thanks,
