Where is the Sketch folder? #111

Closed rar0n closed 2 years ago

rar0n commented 2 years ago

Trying to locate the Sketch folder (newly installed, only ran a few examples).

Changed Sketchfolder location in Settings from: Primary External /storage/emulated/0

To:

Internal /data/user/0/com.calsignlabs.apde/app_sketchbook

Or at least apparently. The last folder in /storage/emulated/0 doesn't exist, doesn't seem to be created, or show in file browser (older ES file browser). Same with the latter folder except for the /data folder, which shows but it's empty. Or contents hidden. idk. Inaccessible anyway.

Going to the copied example sketch's (SineWave) Sketch Properties shows its Sketch Folder as greyed out: https://imgur.com/wGX24uz

You'd need root to view the /data/ folder, so you want to keep the sketch folder in /storage/emulated/0/. The "Location on External Storage" setting should give you the name of the sketchbook folder (for me it's at /storage/emulated/0/Sketchbook).

Thanks for replying. Finally found it by changing it back to the /storage/emulated/0 in APDE settings.

But it's not in that folder, for me it's in /sdcard/Sketchbook. The "sdcard" folder does have a small arrow by it, indicating a link I think, so I don't actually know where it is, but as long as I get access to it I don't care. I'm not sure how I missed that earlier.

My phone doesn't actually have any external SD card anyway (not sure if that's relevant).
