After adding a sparsely populated folder with lots of subfolders, I ended up having about 50 new components many of them not including more than 2 or 3 resources; this is because AI adds a new component for every new (sub-)folder (cf. http://www.advancedinstaller.com/forums ... .php?t=743). Furthermore AI does not allow to move the resources (trying to get rid of components in doing so); this is restricted to very simple cases imho even more simpler than mentioned in the docs http://www.advancedinstaller.com/user-g ... ation.html.
To tidy up the "Features and Components" pane I created a new feature just acting as a container to hold (and evtl. hide) all the automatically generated components with their respective resources. To do so every single component had to be "fed to list" (F4) (lots of keystrokes and mouse-klicks). After populating the "list" I was able to mark all of them and put them to a previously created feature (despite the context-menu's entry reading "Move to New Feature").
This all seems pretty awkward. Is there a better way?
