Capture - remember last folder problem

Post by grilo0 »

Hi there!
First, THANK YOU! I love your application! :D

There is a bug really bugging me.
The feature that saves the last used folder when you save a captured image was not working and the cause might be on yawcam_settins.xml:

<void property="captureDialogSavePath">
<string>C:\Users\lalm\Documents\!FGS\!EUGSSP\Scanner\PIC001</string>
</void>

The PIC001 is the file name that I've typed before clicking on the Save button, it shouldn't be saved on the path.
When I close and open Yawcam again seems that it tries to locate this path and as it don't exist (PIC001 is not a folder), it always comes back to default Documents folder.

If I manually remove the PIC001 and save the xml like this...:

<void property="captureDialogSavePath">
<string>C:\Users\lalm\Documents\!FGS\!EUGSSP\Scanner\</string>
</void>

...it works, the Save dialogue opens with correct path selected, but as soon as I save a file the problem is back. When I close Yaw it adds the last file name to path again.

Please, could you fix this in your next release? Even if is only a beta.

Thank you and congratulations, you are doing a great job!

Have you tried the latest version 0.6.0?
It handles browse and Save buttons better when it comes to saved paths...
