[Closed] Folder Property?

 PEN

I’m looking for a way of marking specific folders on the net work for project management reasons. For a file I can add a file property and search for that but it doesn’t look like I can do that with folders. Can any one suggest a good way of going about this. I have thought of just dropping an INI file in that folder, is that the best way do you think?

I don’t know of any (maxscript) commands to store custom data into a folder. Even Windows itself uses an ini file (desktop.ini) to store folder-specific settings, so I guess that’s the only way to do this.

Good point. I will go down the INI root then. I think that what i’m going to do is write out all the folders to an XML formated file and store data there instead of just an INI file.
