Media Picker - Only possible to drill-down on Folders
I have made a structure of media-types (Products -> Product Group -> Product) and a tree in the Media-section That way I can controll, what media-types the user is allowed to create. Example:
But when I in the Content-section tries to drill-down to the images. It is not possible open and se the content of "Products". I am only able to select "Products".
Is it possible to configure what media-types that the media-picker accepecst as a "folder"?
Does this solve the problem whereby you can't move media to a folder's sub folder i.e. from Media to 4-legs in the above example? I have a client with a very pressing need to do this on an a site recently upgraded to V7.0.4.
@Craig - According to the bug report noted by Mikkel it was fixed after 7.0.4 so you'll want at least 7.1.x. (though I've not tried your scenario in 7.1.x personally it surely won't work prior to the bug fix)

Thanks in adavance

No, it isn't possible to do this. Can you please add a bug report at https://issues.umbraco.org?
Seems like any media type that has a Folder Browser property should appear in the picker.

Thanks Douglas,
I just wanted to get the bug verified here on Our before creating a bug report.
I looks like there is some hard-coded checks in the Umbraco-code, that checks if the TypeAlias is "Folder".
"umb-photo-folder.html"
"umbraco.controller.js"
Great sleuthing, Mikkel!
Go file that bug report and then make a link to it from here for the benefit of the next person.
cheers,

V7.1.1 doesn't fix it. See: http://our.umbraco.org/forum/umbraco-7/using-umbraco-7/50096-V7-Media-section-confusion?p=0#comment179204
