Refresh directory and filelist without restart of XnView

Post by Pauwehla »

When in thumbs view having the filelist with the thumbs in the main window
a F5 refreshes the filelist and the thumbs. Thats nice and usefull.

BUT the folders list in the folders list (mostly on the left side)
has no way to be refreshed or reread.

Creating new directories will place them at the end of the (sub-)folders.
No way to sort them into the folderslist properly.

BUT new (sub-)directories created outside XnView
(by raw photo software) will never show up in a running XnView.
There is no way to refresh the (sub-)folders list.
You will have to restart XnView.
Thats not very elegant;-))
