[Daily build] Samples missing from Dynamo Sandbox

Open dimven opened this issue 9 years ago • 6 comments

Dynamo version

1.0.1.1757 (daily)

Operating system

Windows 7

What did you do?

Opened Dynamo Sandbox and went to the Help > Samples menu

What did you expect to see?

A menu list of samples

What did you see instead?

No menu list. 2016-06-28_10-34-48

This is only happening inside the Sandbox. If you launch Dynamo from inside Revit, the samples appear. This is a tiny bug but most of the samples do not require Revit and it would be nice to have them available once more.

Still persists in 2.0.x

same here - we're all missing them. Plus, if you click on Show samples in folder, it takes you to My computer.

Feel like this is a rather big issue - any people installing Dynamo right now get no samples - this includes a lot of newcomers & beginners.

@avidit the thing is that Sandbox does not have an installer and the sample location is in %appData% %programData% etc. We could do something like include the samples in the bin folder and have sandbox use a fallback path, but because some integrators ship sandbox directly, this is fraught.
