Usability: VFS and OS X
Hide connected VFS drive icons on your desktop
Description:
Finder preferences (standard)
If you have set the Finder preferences that all hard drives and all connected servers are displayed on the desktop, even the virtual drive of a started censhare clients will be displayed. However, in practice, this does not make sense, because its content is invisible for the Finder anyway .
This can become confusing very quickly with increasing number of parallel clients and / or multiple connected servers.
VFS mount visible on the desktop (hidden="0")
VFS mount visible in the Finder (hidden="0")
Configuration:
To circumvent this problem, you may hide VFS connected volumes starting with censhare Client 4.7.22 and 4.8.5, if desired. Precondition for this is that you have installed the latest Client with the provided installer.
To hide a mounted VFS, you only have to add the attribute hidden="1" to node <censhare-vfs ... /> in your local hosts.xml file.
<host url="//yourServer/corpus.RMIServer" name="serverName"> <censhare-vfs use="1" hidden="1" /> </host>
Next time you launch the Client the VFS volume icon is no longer displayed on the desktop or in the Finder.
