renoise attempts to load the files as a song or a sample and then gives an error message.
fyi, using 2.1 b3
in this example i was trying to go into a folder alias simply called ‘xrns’. renoise seems to view it as a sample.
Yes, Mac aliases are not and where never supported. Same for classic Windows shortcuts. Unix symlinks are supported though…
Can we move this to the suggestions box?
i guess so. i didn’t realise this functionality had to be built into an app.
Those are simple files which have to be opened/read to see where they point to. The problem is that we are supporting multiple OSes, so this is a bit awkward to add, but we’ll do this some when…
This would be great. I really miss this since I often categorize samples and tracks using Mac aliases.
