Hi,

I’ve faced this problem after making my “Type” unique (10901).
But changing Type from 109 to 10901 solved another problem : my picture lib isn’t in QuickLaunch any more, even if OnQuickLaunch is set to “TRUE”.

Does someone reproduce this prolbem with a Custom Picture Lib of type 109 ?

Thanks,

TiBo.

Hmm. That’s a good question. It looks like it might not be possible as a CustomAction.

I’d be delighted to hear if you find a solution, though.

Hi!

I have this problem, and changing back to type=109 would do it. But what if you have a custom action in your picture library that you only want on your custom list defintion?
Any ideas?

I did the same thing as you but when I remove the feature it messes up the ability of sharepoint to run the site manager saying feature xxx-xx-x-xx for list template 109 is not installed on this farm.

Any thoughts about that issue?

Error goes something like this: “Feature ‘bbc8d48a-6fe9-493d-a035-0f7cdfc1377f’ for list template ’109′ is not installed in this farm. The operation could not be completed. at Microsoft.SharePoint.SPFeatureManager.GetFeatureRootAndListSchemaPaths(Guid featid, Int32 ltid, String& sPathToFeatureRoot, String& sPathToSchemaXml)”

Hi Jeroen,

Yup, that’s a good approach. I prototyped it a while back, and it worked okay. I’d just sooner avoid reinventing the wheel if I can. I’ll just use 109 for now!

Hi,

If you really want to you can create an event receiver and make the logic yourself of creating a thumbnail inside _w and _t.
I have encountered this same problem a while back and this also works.
