Description aiena.makehuman 2021-05-29 04:30:22 UTC 
SUMMARY
File->Export will take you to the file dialog with the last saved file location. I would like an option to have file->Export open up in the current working directory of the open document by default. If the location is not available (e.g. rare case where document was on thumb drive and the thumb drive was unmounted after the file was opened) it can default to some sane default like a home dir/ previous known location.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. do work on one document
2. export some files in that documents cwd by navigating to it.
3. Open another document in some other location/drive
4. choose file->export with document in step 3 open

OBSERVED RESULT
You will see the working dir in step 2 (steps to reproduce)

DESIRED RESULT
open in working dir of current document from which I am exporting

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: kubuntu 20.04
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.18.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.68.0
Qt Version: 5.12.8

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I usually organise working files, backups, exports etc. in the same project folder of the active document.
