Greetings,

I am using some medical software and I want it to be working off a folder accessible via a Windows share. I have no trouble connecting to the drive, the bookmark appears on my desktop, and I have a shortcut on my Nautilus side pane.

However I can't seem to get to this drive within the medical software's "Choose Directory" window. I am attaching what this window looks like as a .png . If I go to the desktop I am not offered the bookmark, and I can't get access to my Nautilus side pane in this window.

Because this is fairly obscure software, this may be a flaw in the design of the prompting window, or this may be a common window and I just don't know how to get to the share.

Can anyone tell me how to get to my shared drive from this window? If not, is there a way to create a symlink that would show up in this window?

Thanks, Eric
