Description Bollebib 2016-10-11 15:58:08 UTC

right now render animation remembers the last used location which is fine for some uses. But usually you have a particular folder structure with a lot of scenes. Each scene is a different animation and thus a different export location. Sometimes you need to re-export a lot and it would be a huge timesaver to have krita remember the location for exporting specific to that file,as you would lose less time browsing.



also it would be good to have maybe a relative path? cause sometimes you need to move whole folders at once,and not having to update that would be great
But i'm not sure this last request is doable...it's just something i was thinking of for future uses,cause this would have to work the same for sound file locations,where krita looks for it,unless krita would load the file itself?. Just food for thought...

this is actually not limited to animation,i would enjoy this too for normal files

Comment 2 Bollebib 2016-10-11 16:10:08 UTC

and where you open file should be different from where you export or save files. I often open files somewhere,then save or export somewhere else. I always feel hampered ,when i want to do that..

this should technically not be too hard... depending on how difficult it is to pass the information.
