Hi Sam,

The "Reveal in Finder" is a Mac thing ... I'm just starting AS on my Windows machine to see what the corresponding option is. All Reveal in Finder does is open the folder that the images are stored in; just like Windows Explorer would do.

There must be some equivalent option in there. Once AS opens, I'll be able to check!

Steve.

Ah. :smile:

Well, there's going to be an equivalent option in the menu. Windows has "Show in Explorer" - Ubuntu will have something similar at that point in the menu that will open the disk location where the resources are stored.

Hi there, Aroshine,

Is there a 'reveal in Explorer' option? Which Windows version are you using; I'm just starting AS in Windows 10 to see what I get there.

Steve.

Cool - I get a 'Show In Explorer' option which should do it for you. There's also a 'File Path' option which shows you where the folder is embedded.

Glad you got it sorted! :smile: :+1:

Steve.
