Hi, this is a few bugs but they seem to relate.

It keeps forgetting the current dir and the settings for the executable name. Regarding the dir, it's when you set some relative subdir in the base dir for building or running. It will work the first time round, but then it seems to stay in the subdir so the second cd fails. Workaround is to set the dir you want to build/run from to the active dir. Regarding the executable name: it just forgets after a while. It works, i can enter it, but I open the preferences again it's gone :(.

More info? Can you give me an example. I don't quiet understand the directories your talking about. Can you give an reproducable example with using one of the sample projects?

There is:
Project Options/General/Project Directory: (Relative or Absolute)
Project Options/Configure Options/Build Directory
Project Options/Configure Options/Top source directory
Project Options/Run Options/Directory- (3 options here)
Project Options/Run Options/Program- main program (relaive to BUILD directory)

Then if you use a customer project, there is 'active directory' option on a RMB.

Since there is no feedback and I can reproduce the report for Custom Makefiles, I will assume that's what's in use here.

"It keeps forgetting current dir" is probably bug #133038 - which is user error.

The other part is a bug.

This is also gone now that the UI is redone.
