Working Dir VS Current Working Directory

[Dale Urban]

Hi,


Is there a way to keep the working directory as the save point for new files rather than having new files save to a previously accessed dir?


Ex.


Opening a file from another directory (lib) makes that dir the Current working dir but I don't want to save new stuff there. Using override_store_backup forces new parts to save in the working dir but also makes copies of lib parts there as well. Using Save_objects_in_current "no" doesn't seem to have an effect. Are there any more options?

Thanks:


Pro/e has a lot of power but tends to be somewhat cryptic at times.

That's the understatement of the week.

file_open_default_folder got added so that by default Pro/E would work more like Windoze Office applications where you never know what directory your file is going to end up in.
