0.85b3: Contact sheet without output folder
Posted: Tue Mar 28, 2017 4:10 pm
Hi Pierre,
As requested by Helmut:
When creating a Contact sheet from selected files, with the field Output folder empty, the program starts working and then ends, without creating anything.
When the program first creates the files in memory and finds nothing in the output path variable, it doesn't know where to store and stops.
Processing 100 files can take a while without getting results.
The user should be pointed that the output path needs to be filled, and maybe there should also be a check if the path exists.
It is usual that a program reports when it cannot write, as soon as known, instead of sending data to the black hole.
Regards,
Han

, Now works, good message, good that the field is read-only I think.
