The behaviour described in the bug report is either by design, or would be far too complex/time-consuming to be changed

Drop Down Drive Letter Box

Post by *LamarM »

I'm not sure what this is called, but it shows all the local and network drives that you are connected to. When you click the drop down box to see the drives instead of showing you the drive mappings it will hang for several minutes before showing you what you're connected to. This feature worked fine with all other versions. After this apparent hang it works as expected.

I'm running 7.0pb2 32bit 22.11.2006 on win2k server sp4 and hot patches.

I cannot confirm. I've seen a short (less than 1 sec) delay for the first time I used the command, but that was it.
I tried mapping a different network resource and there was no delay.

I guess it all depends of the response speed of a specific network computer.
TC for Linux please!

Our infrastructure is GB. So I don't believe that is an issue.

This now appears to be an intermitant issue, one time it takes 5 seconds the next time 5 minutes.

I'll continue to play with it and see if I can make it go away.

I believe I figured out the issue. I had a network server that was not responding, so it had to timeout before TC would show the drives.
