button for "save" directory

[tristarcapt]

Also, any chance on a button on the main window to access the save directory?  Instead of having to go through the settings sub menu.

What's the timeline for next release of BYEOS?

Correct, this was added in 3.1.17 already... but this is a premium feature only.

[tristarcapt]

ooops, see 3.1.17 now.  sorry

[tristarcapt]

thanks for the quick response, I have the premium edition and just downloaded 3.1.17 but still don't see anywhere to select the save directory from the main window.  I see the save to drop down menu in the capture plan area but that just lets me select pc, camera, or both.  That was on .16 too.  I must be blind, where is it?

[admin]

You need to right click one of the image in the bottom thumbnail image strip.

[tristarcapt]

I do see that, thanks.   But was more looking at a way to change the download directory from maybe somewhere in the capture plan area without going back to the settings menu to change it.

[admin]

Oh, nope.... you can only change it it the Settings dialog.

[tristarcapt]

Ok thank you, put in one vote for that request!

How would such a change improve your workflow?

For me I set it years ago and have not needed to change it since then. So, for me, not having it clutter up the image capture screen is a plus.

I create separate folders for each date I image, sub folders that include target and some others.  There are 4 options in the settings menu for sub folders but none really fit with how I'd like to save my data.  I'm pretty sure a button could be created (perhaps in the image capture planning area) that would be small and unobtrusive that simply opened up a save to folder window.  It just would eliminate having to open the settings window separately before changing the download to folder.

That's how it would help my workflow.
