Ability to define a default sequence folder #3107

Open derwin12 opened 2 years ago

derwin12 commented 2 years ago

Seeing some folks who put their sequences in to "SHOWFOLDER"/sequences. Problem happens when you create a new sequence and hit save, it just drops it into "SHOW FOLDER". Could a preference be added, similar to fseq, that would allow one to set to the show folder or a folder selected from a picklist?

Otherwise the noobs will save stuff in both sequence folder and show folder and not realize which one is the good one :-)

Thanks Daryl.

Doesn't the "Save As" dialog default to the show directory? It's supposed to.

That is the problem -- they want their sequences in a showfolder/sequences directory to keep the show folder "clean". (Hey its not me .. just echoing the goof ups seen in zoom)
