Simply adding a folder name does not populate the folder. Empty folders are not displayed in that context menu. Once you elect to create a custom layout, it is up to you to populate the layout completely. SONAR will not add plug-ins to the layout. It may be easier to create your favorites layout and switch layouts when you need something from the full layout.
Yes. I think you have it mostly correct, but Sonar DOES populate the other folders, VST3 and DirectX, in the layout, and I never touched those.
Sonar has assumed that since I put VST2 plugins in A_sk_1
then
I don't want to see other VST2.
Even so, in the layout A_sk_1 the VST2 folder is filled the same way it is in the default layout.
BUT
If when in A_sk_1 ... I add VST2 plugins
THEN
the VST2 folder in now available in the short list but with only the ones I've added.
Problem here is that it creates a bloody mess in the browser adding duplicates for all VST2 that are added to the layout.
I agree the best
work around method is to create the favorites folder and then switch between layouts when wanting other VST2.
I think it's just unfinished programing.
The fix would be: When using a custom plugin layout, to have Sonar always show and populate ALL folders when right clicking in a bin, in the exact same way that it does in the browser.
The oversight is in not having that same exact functionality when right clicking in a bin as we do when we use the browser.
