Summary

Web Access may display slow performance after you expand a folder in the folder tree that contains a large number of subfolders.

Workaround

There is a hotfix available for Web Access 8.0.1. The fix changes the folder browser control so that by default, it only displays the first 200 subfolders in a folder.

You can modify this default value to fit your needs.

To update Web Access 8.0.1

1. Click the following link to download a zip file containing the hotfix.

   Hotfix_SCR47748

2. Replace your existing version of WebAccessCommon.dll with the updated version included in the zip file. By default, the file is located at "C:\Program Files\Laserfiche\Web Access 8\Web Files\bin."

   Note: Make a backup of the original WebAccessCommon.dll or rename the original file.

3. Restart IIS.

To modify the number of displayed subfolders

1. Using a text editor, open index.aspx. By default, the file is located at "C:\Program Files\Laserfiche\Web Access 8\Web Files."
2. Locate the following line:

   <WebAccess:FolderTreeControl ID="myFolderTree" runat="server" AutoLoadJavascript="false" ClientOnInitialize="onFolderTreeInitialize();" />

3. Add the MaxFolders property and set it to the desired value. For example, if you want the control to be able to display 100 folders instead of 200, modify the line to look similar to the following:

   <WebAccess:FolderTreeControl ID="myFolderTree" runat="server" AutoLoadJavascript="false" ClientOnInitialize="onFolderTreeInitialize();" MaxFolders="100" />

Set MaxFolders to 0 if you want the control to display all subfolders.
