Display File Explorer content in item detail pane

[cnewtonne]

Hi all ...

When I paste a folder path in the url address bar in UR e.g. c:\users\john, UR displays file explorer content in the editor/details pane i.e. file icons with date & size details.

However, If I create a 'document' type tree item and set its URL to the same folder path, editor/detail pane displays blank.

I also tried to use import wizard and check the box not to import files (just create a folder link). The import succeeded, but editor pane is still blank.

If I create a link in the editor and set its target to the folder path, clicking on it display fine as expected.

Is there a way to create a tree item that is, when clicked, displays the file explorer contents directly?

Thanks

Create a Folder item and add a URL item attribute of the folder to view.

One of the options I listed above to import the folder link does exactly that, but the folder contents do not display.

However, I did just try again to create a folder item type and added a URL attribute to it, still. no content (see image below)

Pasting the URL into the address bar works just fine (see image below)

Hi ...
I'm trying to understand UR behavior regarding these three scenarios ...

1. Info item of type folder with a URL attribute set: Page does not display. Stays blank.

2. Manually copying document template and setting URL attributes: Displays 'click here to open linked document'.

3. An info item created by dragging URL from UR internal browser url box as a link: Displays web page immediately.

Often times I find myself using scenario two, but I want it to display web page just like it does in scenario 3. Why is it not? Item attributes for 2 & 3 seem identical.

Furthermore, if template 'document' is listed under templates, why is not showing in the insert sibling/child menu?

Here's a sample urd file: https://www.dropbox.com/s/3w1xs0vci3...ingur.urd?dl=0
