New folders not showing after ingest

[karlmz]

Hi,

When I ingest with PM6, the new folders (ingest date > camera model > capture date) do not show in the Navigator. I have to restart PM6 to make them visible. A bug?

Possibly.  If you close the parent folder and reopen it, I expect that the new folders will show.

Actually this behaviour has been present since as long as I remember; new directories don't show up in the Navigator automatically. I always found that when you collapse the parent directory and then expand it again the directories do show up.

I think this is done to not have to constantly scan the directories in the navigator for changes (which would impact performance).

I see. But it was a new behavior to me. I went from PM4.6.9 directly to PM6. In PM4.6.9 I never saw that behavior. Anyway, if it happens again, I know what to do. Thank you!
