From AYON to files

In the launcher you’ve added both (quite handy) actions to open the selected context in AYON or in your file system. In AYON it would be handy to also have the option to open a version’s file, a shot, a task folder in the file system. You have added the copy option in the path attribute of a version, but the path is “incomplete”, missing the project root. In the Source attribute you’ve added the root but as template token… I’d vote to have full paths with resolved tokens to make information readable without having to “ping-pong” for it.

    This is the most common question I get from my team… how to access the files on disk

    It would be an amazing feature indeed!

    Hi Lorenzo.

    It’s on our radar indeed. However doing it from the web UI is a bit tricky as the action at that moment is not aware of you local roots that might have overrides. That being said I believe we can figure that one out eventually.

      I’ve just realized that in the path also the publish/work folder is missing! So I’d say the path attribute of a Version is actually wrong?
      In the Source attribute it’s correct.
