Changing "General: Case-sensitive Paths" setting does not trigger re-scan of database

[Arrow]

Hello,

Since commit 77c95fe the checkbox “General: Rescan Paths On Change” was removed and it’s not possible to trigger a rescan of the database anymore.

Whenever I check or uncheck “General: Case-sensitive Paths”, the “DazAbsScanPath” file is not overwritten.

Here you can see a log (with Verbosity = 5) of me opening Blender then enabling and disabling the checkbox :

[fedora@home ~]$ /blender/app/blender

Apparently the class “DAZ_OT_ScanAbsolutePaths" should call “GS.scanAbsPaths" but it does not seems to work ? (i’m not an expert on Python)

The problem was that it was quite easy to trigger a lengthy scan by mistake. If you want to rescan the database, you must now do it manually with the Scan Absolute Paths button in the Utilities panel.

Thanks for your explanation, didn't see that. I’ll mark the issue as resolved then.
