Environment

Micro Focus Filr 3
Micro Focus Filr Desktop client 3.2

Situation

If you have a sub-folder inside a Net Folder with all-numeric characters in the name and the name is 8 characters long, then even if the folder is made offline the user never gets to see the sync overlay icon indicating the folder is offline. For other folders at the same level which are NOT 8 characters long, everything works fine.

For example:
Net Folders\Acme\12345678 does not show the overlay sync icon even if it is made offline.
Net Folders\Acme\1234567 works fine and shows the overlay icon when made offline.

Resolution

 A fix for this issue is available in the Filr 3.2.1 Update.
