No "Open on click" for special folders in catalog

Post by Chris Wood »

Setting "open on click" for a special folder (eg. My Computer, Desktop, My Documents, My Network Places) in catalog stops that catalog item from working.

Is there some other way to do it? I would find it really hand as an "open on click" item.
You can: Catalog, right-click menu, Add selected tree item here.

Oh, I already had that working - I didn't realise because setting it to "open on click" doesn't work.

Changed bug report title and split into two threads. New thread is Can't drag special folders (eg. My Computer) to catalog.

:) No, you are right. Normally I log every poop. I sometimes don't when the actual code work is shorter and faster than describing it would be. This is very rarely the case.
