Default directory sample not working properly

Vote:
 
Hi, I was trying the "Changing default directory based on dynamic property" from code samples but can't get it to work properly. What I have done: 1. Change the Global.asax.cs and recompiled 2. Create the dynamic property "DefaultUploadDirectory" of type string 3. Create the folder "/upload/test" 4. Set the dynamic property "DefaultUploadDirectory" to "/upload/test" on a subpage to the startpage The whole thing works in the "File manager" but when I go via "Insert document" the ordinary global folder is showing up.

It's the same control that renders both GUI's so it should be no difference, make sure you do not select an existing document/image before opening the "Insert document", otherwise the default directory will be the currently selected file's directory.

I have even tried it with a new empty page but the problem still remains.

Even if there shouldn't be a difference there is one as I'm still not able to use this function in "Insert document". Any help is highly appreciated.
