I had to do some work for a company the past couple of weeks in Photoshop but are now happily back in Affinity Photo.  But immediately the Export default folder issue annoyed me!  Looking on the internet if it is not something that I just do not get, I found this thread and just want to add my very large voice for "PLEASE IMPLEMENT THE SUGGESTION FOR DEFAULT SAVE LOCATION".  Lets hope some customers relation personell is actually reading these forums

Trying to keep this thread alive as it's really driving me bonkers...
 

 
Any chance on anything like this, a choice like any other software ?

Been using all the Affinity products since a couple of months, generally love it.... but:
DEFAULT FILE save LOCATION; This was and still is my first and most important issue with this fantastic piece of software.
Beautiful export template with easy and fast to choose file formats using ICONS and text, then click and click and click and click some more to find the source location.
Don't have any explanation that could make any sense...
Interesting (and saddened by it) that after several years such an simple function that even almost all software, open source or other, have and still is not added.

p.s. thanks to the user created image (see post above) to visualize the simple solution

The idea can even be expanded with a drop-down list of the last 10 used locations, but source folder would be useful to most...

Let's just keep this thread for what is is and was.
 
Simple basic feature that should be present since the very first alpha / beta version
Below here is just an example, dropdown list with multiple options would not be much more work.

Yes please! Make an option to default save back to source/original folder.
AND
an option for automatic addon to the original filename, like: "Source Filename" + "User selected addon". filetype (Like DxO PL and On1 have)
+
Tickbox for never overwriting files when saving/exporting (Like DxO PL have)
 

It would be very nice if Zoom to fit actually used all the available space. Right now it leaves a very large border around the image to the edges of the workspace. Maybe a preference. Zoom to fit with no border.
