Image Manager Browse Dialog

[Michael McClain]

I have the Rad editor being used at two site collections, one being the root site collection and one which comes under the root.
I have an Image Library at the Root Site Collection and I want to show the same library items inside the second site collection instead of creating another replica library at that particular site collection. I tried using the '/ImagesLibrary' but it points to the corresponding Site collection. I was going through the below post and wanted to know if the feature has been made available in the current versions.

Please help. Thanks in advance.

Hi Michael,

You can find information on the Image Manger in the following online help article http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet-ajax/image_manager.html.

The ImagesPaths property is available in the Lite version of RadEdiotor for MOSS.

As it is explained in the article that you mention in your post, here is more ditailed explanation of the ImagesPaths property.

For example:
SiteCollection/ImagesLibrary
SiteCollection/SubSite1/ImagesLibrary

Lets  open the SubSite1 ConfigFile.xml and set the following images path:
<property name="ImagesPaths">
  <item>ImagesLibrary</item>
</property>
The ImageManager will load the SiteCollection/SubSite1/ImagesLibrary. 

If you set the path with slash the ImageManager will open the SiteCollection/ImagesLibrary e.g. 
<property name="ImagesPaths">
  <item>/ImagesLibrary</item>
</property>

If you do not set the editor's ImagesPaths property the dialog will show all the libraries from the current Web.

Note that. you can refer libraries only from the current site collection.

Is there any way i can access libraries from different site collections? If this feature is not available in the current versions, can you let me know when it will be made available?

Thanks again.

Hi Michael,

By using the RadEditor for MOSS you can not access files from different site collections. At this point we do not intend to implement such functionality soon.
