Link to folder inside the bookmarks tab

[This topic is migrated from our old forums. The original author name has been removed]

As we are sharing .sql data through a version control system, I'd like to be able to link a folder into my bookmarks. I tried to create a shortcut of the folder under .dbvis/Bookmarks, but dbvis does not accept that. Did I miss something? Can I change my bookmarks location?

Johannes, If you are using a Linux/UNIX or Mac OS X system a soft link (ln -s) should work fine. On Windows there is some equivalent feature but we've heard about mixed results. We do have an open ticket to look into a supported way of sharing bookmarks. Not scheduled yet though. Regards Roger

One more thing. You need Java 7 as it is supports soft links better than Java 6. Regards Roger
