Syncronize problem (version 1.0.6.1)

I had a problem with the syncronice command caused by A folder shortcut inside Poser runtime directory.
The syncronize procedure entered in a loop and corrupted AL library informations.

From where to where did the shortcut point?

ivo.it

Try this:

1) Make a backup of library files.
2) In AL settings tab add a new category (in syncronize mode).
3) Link 'new category' to '..\Runtime\libraries\Character' Poser folder.
4) Use sincronize command.
5) In Windows Explorer create a shortcut of the '..\Runtime\libraries\Character' folder.
6) Move the shortcut inside '..\Runtime\libraries\Character' to create a circular reference.
7) Use syncronize command and wait  (AL enters in a loop).

Close and Restart AL. In library tab 'new category' search for the shortcut and see the result.
The search procedure should ignore shortcuts altogether.

No that's something I added because i only have shortcuts inside of my library pointing to the product files outside the library. This way i always know what product the files are from and from where i got them. As Poser does support that, too, I'm not going to remove it.

But 1.0.6.3 should fix the loop problem that occured with shortcuts in the root of an AL category.
