SMTD Repository Root Display

Deadline
1

Hi,
It would be most useful if the SMTD visually displayed in the interface the particular Deadline Repository root which is being used.
In a multiple repository pipeline, I’m getting confused!
Can I suggest displaying it in the top half of the SMTD somewhere? In the dialog window title text?
Thanks,
Mike

Simple enough. We’ll display it in the dialog title.

The only thing I would watch out for is that if the path length of the repository is quite long, it will be difficult to display its full length in the title.
Also, if the path is quite similar between 2 repositories, again, if its not fully displayed, it could be misleading to the artist/TD.
Not too sure how to handle this!
Thanks,
Mike

We changed the title to SMTD 3.x : \path\to\repository, which allows more of the repository path to be shown. Hopefully this gives enough space to cover most repository paths.

Thanks Ryan. This should work for our setup :slight_smile:
