Description Peter Lam 2008-10-25 07:23:22 UTC

This is a usability issue.
From the Platform Manager, the file/directory chooser does not remember the location that was previously selected. Every
time it comes up, it's started from a default "Documents" (on Windows Vista) location. It's a tedious thing to keep
browsing from the "Documents" directory for several paths to be added. The chooser can be brought up from the following
buttons on the Platform Manager dialog.

- Platform | New button
- Main tab | Browse button
- Python Path tab | Add button
- Java Path tab | Add button

Not sure it is still relevant with the current version. Closing this as old bug. If this is still a thing, please reopen and accept my apologies.

Thanks for your evaluation Julien. Reporter, if you think your issue is still valid and needs to be addressed, don't hesitate to reopen it with additional information. Closing for now.
