[cosmic-users] PICML PredefinedTypes Folder Insertion Behaviour

[James H. Hill]

Hi Gavin,

Please try to avoid sending PICML/CoSMIC specific questions to the gme-users mailing list. If you had to choose between the two, I would send it first to the CoSMIC mailing list (cosmic-users at list.isis.vanderbilt.edu). If we think it is a GME question, then we will forward it along.

Correct.

> When trying to create the same kind of folder in a new model I am unable to get the folder's children elements to be automatically added and can only added via the right click and insert process. Comparing the models I can see no difference and can not find any reference to enabling an option to allow for the automatic insertion.

Hum, when the PredefinedTypes folder is added to a model, it should auto-generate one of each predefined type elements that appears in that folder.

I will check this today and let you know what I find out.

Thanks,

James
