Rails - Apr 2006 - file_column and custom store_dir

I''m using file_column to store mulitple versions of an image in a
custom directory "images/artwork/" with the :store_dir option.
This is working fine for uploading and storing the images, but whenever I try
and access the images with the url_for_file_column helper it keeps generating
the default path. I thought it would replace this by default, but it
doesn''t seem to.

I can hand code these in, but it seems a bit wrong and it feels like I must
missing some crucial url_for_file_column option. I can''t see any reason
why you would want to set a custom :store_dir if it isn''t used by the
helpers!

maybe it''s a bug that needs fixing...

anyone else had this?

I agree that it would make a lot more sense for file_column to default 
to using the the store_dir as the base_url but it doesn''t.

just put this in your declaration :base_url =>
''mages/artwork''

and you should be in the money.
