Default location for Save As (and Export)


Recommended Posts

I still don't understand if the save to option is a feature of the Apple IO why the only program I have problems with is Affinity Photo. I save frequently to keep prior work. Having to check every time to be sure where the file will be saved to is irritating and frustrating and invites me to look for alternatives to Affinity.

Having the default change every time I open and save a file means I have recent copies of a file all over my laptop and have to remember to check to be sure I'm opening the most recent copy of the file. If I open a file from from a folder, I expect it to save back to exactly that folder unless I use "Save As" and change the location.

I have installed DefaultFolderX and it seems to work but I'm irritated to have to install an add on just to make Affinity safe to use.

We have been using all three Affinity apps on 20 mac workstations now for several years. Also we are teaching our students how to work with Affinity Photo. We are extremely frustrated with all Affinity apps choosing the last destination that was used for exports instead of the location of the original file. And now we feel even more frustrated as we found out that this topic is discussed since ages without any reaction! What can we do....go back to Adobe??????
