Setting paths to folders for backups, diags etc

Post by gbrowne » 30 Jan 2009 08:22

Whenever you save a diagram or do a backup, or in fact save anything, you are prompted with the folder you most recently used in the session.

I suggest that a preferences item be provided, where paths may be specified for separate folders where things get saved to disc, ie a backups folder, a diagrams folder etc etc.

An alternative would be for FH to remember the folder you last used for that function and default to that - at least you would only have to choose once.

Perhaps this has been at least partly overtaken by the introduction of the 'Project' folder structure in FH4?
