Program files directory settings

[vllr]

May be I'm doing something wrong - but...
I specified some folder for "Program files" in Directories preferences. Docs says:
"Defines the starting directory when opening or saving Program files. If you leave this directory
blank, you will always start in the directory you opened or saved a Program file the last time." So my expectations were that now I should always start with folder I specified, rather then the latest used. But it looks like the latest used folder is still be used when I try to save new program unit.

This seems like a bug. We'll fix it.

Hy,

this problem isn't already fixed.
Can you please check this in the newest version?

Seems to work okay. Note that if you go to a different directory during a session, this directory will be the default directory for the duration of that session. But as soon as PL/SQL Developer is restarted, the preference takes precedence again.

Sorry Marco, it really didn't work at my config. Here is what i've done:

We have two Projects f.e. ProjA and ProjB which have two different SQL-directories and DBs.
So i had defined two extra Default Preferences for the Projects in which i only set the directories for Program files and SQL scripts.
So i have the following Default-Preferences:
- System Default
- ProjA
- ProjB

If i now connect to ProjA DB i can see in the preferences within my personal the correct directory for ProjA. With connect to ProjB DB it's the same.
BUT: If i go to File->Open->Program File i'm always in the directory which i last selected and not in the directory choosen in Preferences.
It's the same after a restart of PL/SQL Dev...

This Problem is really confusing me, because in both Projects we have some Packages which have the same name, but different code!
So i have to look everytime (after opening the file) wether the directory is ok or not.
