Description Nikolay Kapyrin 2019-08-06 08:03:30 UTC
SUMMARY
While consecutively opening and modifying multiple projects in different folders, I'd like, when I click "Open project", for the Open dialog to show the last opened file's folder. When the action of opening is followed by a "the project has been changed, do you want to save" dialog, the lookup folder for the next opened file will be that of the previously saved project file, not the last opened project file.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open kdenlive project A1 from folder AAA
2. Make some changes
3. Open kdenlive project B1 from folder BBB
4. Click "Yes" to "the project has been changed, do you want to save" dialog
5. Click open to fetch the next project file, B2 supposedly in the folder BBB

OBSERVED RESULT
The work directory is now AAA

EXPECTED RESULT
The open directory should be BBB, matching the one where the last opened file is
