Losing my grip using aliases
Sjaak_van_den_Akker_(originuser2_-_(deleted))
Anybody already has much experience using attachments with workflows?I have created a workflow with sub-workflows in order to attach different documents during the different phases of my workflow. In order to keep my document I alias them from the folder structure I have also defined within my project.My problem is that as soon I am going to use one of the aliases I completely lose control of where I am and which button I should have pressed. To be more specific: After using the reference of an alias you need to use the browsers back button i.s.o. the "folder up" button of LiveLink otherwise you never return where you came from.Do others have the same problems and what is the best way of solving it?Regards,Richard.

It looks like the same problem as you get when using UNIX symbolic links. When you change directory via a symlink and then go up a level you don't end up where you expect.Off the top of my head a solution might be for the Alias.Open() handler to pass the referer page / object information along to the target page if it can use it. Then the "Up a level" folder icon could refer to the correct location.I'm not sure if this would work but it might be worth thinking about.Best regards/matt.
