persistence of directories....

Postby scott1x » 16 Jan 2009 18:31

It would be a convenience if files and directories were persistent between program executions. The play list save always defaults to "my documents," an area I almost never use. It would be nice if it defaulted to the last directory saved into, so that it would be unnecessary to constantly re-select.

Thank you.

Yes! The most recent versions have improved the viewer's user interface significantly but this omission sticks as a continual annoyance!

Even persistence within one session would be a big step forward!

This will be fixed in future releases.

It was working fine with v0.9.2, I wonder why this behaviour has been changed since v0.9.4...
