Actually, VIEW and Report Layout share the same “last-used” folder when you work interactively with DIAdem.
It’s a bit puzzling when you want to work with separate folders: if you don’t care about the folder used (when swichting from Report to VIEW and vice versa, …), you may discover later that you worked on two files (VIEW or Report) saved in different places.
Last-used folders should be different for VIEW, REPORT and SCRIPT.
Thank you for your suggestion. In the DIAdem settings you can optional switch to an extended path behavior which results in seven different paths (Data, Layouts, Media, Block Diagrams, Scripts, Configuration and TDM Server Conf). It is also possible to differ between paths for reading and writing. All in all, this results in 14 different paths. We have one (two) path for REPORT and VIEW. Because VIEW layouts and REPORT layouts have different extensions (and the number of already existing paths) we currently don’t plan to extend this. We hope for your understanding.
Greetings
