File location of Charts
What is the default file location for saved Charts? The first time I saved a chart it was saved in TreeDraw Legacy next to the sample file. Now it will default to Legacy / Data / 'chartname...'. Does it make any difference other than the convenience of not having to change the file location? If it should be saved in TreeDraw, how do I change the default to reflect this?
Thanks,
Kelly

Nick,
This is what is happening. When I first open TreeDraw and select the Open File Icon or Menu / File / Open it looks in the TreeDraw folder.
If I create a new chart either using the New Icon or Menu / New and then select the Import Icon or Menu / Import it will import from Legacy / Data as it should. When I save the chart it will save to the correct TreeDraw folder.
However, if I try and create and save any subsequent charts, it tries to save it to Legacy / Data. The only time it will save new charts to TreeDraw is if I close the program and start from the very beginning.
Help

Yes I know how to change the path, and actually it would be the "Save In" drop down. However it can get pretty old having to basically re-map the save location each time.
My concern is that it keeps defaulting to save in Legacy/Data instead of the TreeDraw folder no matter how many times I change the location from Legacy/Data to TreeDraw.
I have not been having this issue within Word or Excel just in TreeDraw which leads me to believe that there is something amiss with the program.
