Full Version: Last used folder

Show messages: All  1-5  6-8

Hi Michael,

thank you.

This is the entry in the .ini file which is located under Users/Computer Name/AppData/Roaming/MOI

[Settings]
Startup template=
MaxProcessMemoryUseGB=
SaveWorkingDirectoryAtExit=y
StartupWorkingDirectory=F:\Modelle\St. XYZ123\MOI\
SetNameWhenOpeningAllFileTypes=n
FileLoaderThreadLimit=
LastFileDialogDirectory=F:\Modelle\St. XYZ123\MOI\


(Under \MOI\ the .3dm files are located)

The moi.ini is not write-protected.

Interesting is that when open according to your procedure always the file name "St.3dm" is written in the window field of filename. Shouldn't that be empty? I checked with version 3 and there the last used folder is opened and the filename field is empty and only when you select the file the filename field is then filled with the name .3dm

It's quite weird, because under v3 it works and also under the previous beta version it worked after I changed the setting according to your advise.

 


Cheers,

Axel

Hi Axel, I think the problem is the period in your path (after St): F:\Modelle\St. XYZ123\MOI\

Periods in file names are used to separate the name from the file extension, like filename.3dm - having one in the middle of the path will cause various file parsing mechanisms to get confused. With F:\Modelle\St. XYZ123\MOI\ it's going to think that the folder is at "F:\Modelle\" , the filename is "St" and the file extension is " XYZ123\MOI\" .

If you remove the period from the folder name it should probably solve the problem.

OMG...that easy! :-)

I could have found that culprit by myself! Luckily all other related files as drawings, etc. I properly named with a _ in between.


Thanks Michael!
