setting shared directory not working
 
Oops, misleading header: wish I could amend to to "...not working as in previous versions"

In the latest Phex, setup asks for shared directory, but browse-to option are limited to a mysterious "Shared Files" folder. I would like to specify a full pathname and it won't permit it. I canceled, then went to the "Library" tab and tried again to browse to or otherwise set folder, and same problem. Why the restriction? Is there a way to at least allow me to type a full pathname? I used to be able to do it, with earlier versions.... Must I go back...?

When I use the "add folder" option, it allows me to browse/navigate to the folder I want to use (D:\Phex\Shared\) but clicking "Select" button does not add the folder. Or is it actually added, and I am being mislead by the appearance of the "Library?" Sorry, I guess I need to test this a little further before claiming it is a functional problem.... The mouseover of ?:\?\?\Shared Files\ does list the path I tried to select (D:\Phex\Shared\)....

could you click on the folder and check, if Phex shows its contents?

Not a problem, sorry
 
Yes, it does, and the full path is shown also, in the "directory" column of the "library" tab. Sorry, the graphic layout was just a little strange and different there for a while. I thought I named the directory "Shared" but now it says "Shared Files."
Otherwise, however, everything appears to be ok. Thanks!

Then its all as it should be.

Have fun with Phex!

Wishes,
Arne
