Hi All,  
I have two name spaces(a,b) and two content folder also(a,b) in my project. While i am selecting link picker(hippo:mirror) in any document it is showing two folders showing. I want to restrict like if i will select the link picker of ‘a’ document i want to show only ‘a’ folder in the link picker to select the document. How will i achieve this plz suggest me.

Thanks  
Girija

there is no such option. Only way would be to have separate folder types and limit picker to one of them (default is hippostd:folder), but I wouldn’t go there.
