i see. so best usage to be more efficient, in line with plugin mindset, and avoid over complexity is to use VP as source to manipulate files, organize, or access original files faster, then it will sync with real files with the right manipulation (shift+enter). but then to do the opposite i would simply delete VP and recopy files from real files again. is this correct ?

for F6 : i will then focus on moving files on VP side only and see to get sync done on real file side. Just tried it out, and no effect on D:, even if i do "shift+enter" on confirmation dialog to move file

Apparently, yes, at least until the author adds the necessary functionality.

There is nothing to expect for the created list here. In this case, a virtual link will remain a link. In fact, this is just a path change in the full name of the link, and not a full-fledged movement. This is possible only in the structure of the created folder link.
Here, moving by pressing F6 is possible to the real drive, not VP.

Unsure I got your point here sorry.
If i move a file in VP, from folder1 to folder2 (all in VP), how to replicate that movement in real files on my D: ? not possible ?

D: > VP = virtual link
VP > VP = virtual link
VP > D: = real file

and there is no way that when I do from VP to VP (moving a file/folder) then it is replicated on the real files from D: to D: (by "moving/adjusting" the virtual link that was created when doing D: to VP) ?

This means that moving in the structure of such a folder will have the same effect as on the local drive (VP > VP = LD > LD).

[WFX] VirtualPanel: (issue when using <put /la . <FileList>))

Post by *nsp »

I have an issue after using <put /la . <FileList><flush. I refresh using [F2] key or with tccp -s 540.

The put is correctly done but TC is unresponsive during few second when SaveList is internally called if i only use autoSave (each 30s). I do not have the same issue when using Save At each operation.

I use latest VP 1376 Beta.

Also:
It could be nice to have a kind of internal command like <tc to send message to running TC and not have to call the <exec.
