Option for save as

Post by ExtremeHunter »

Hi! This is my first post here and I'd like to thank the developers for this amazing software!

Today I updated from 0.64 to 0.67 and found a negative surprise, after cropping, I hit save as, renamed the file and saved and closed XnView MP like I've done a thousand times before.
But then to my surprise my newly cropped and saved file was not there.
After some research I realized that XnView MP now remembers the last save folder, which is very inconvenient for me.
I realize that someone else thinks differently and finds this behavior useful.

I found this in Changelog 0.66:
(0000339: [Bugs] Save as folder in view mode - viewtopic.php?f=62&t=29769).

Why is this labeled as a bug?

I have a suggestion that makes everybody happy (I hope :)) Please add option to settings -> Remember the last saved path
So that it can be turned off and when I hit save as a current image folder ​​will be opened like it did before.

For now I return to 0.64.

Thanks in advance!

I also prefer that saving as position of original pictures.
Please add an option for these 2 methods.

Hello,
+1 for an option
.... Right, in some cases it's annoying ... but it's useful in some others cases
... annoying especially when you want to : open a file from an OS explorer ... modify something ... and "save as" the same location.
