We are about to switch to a new forum software. Until then we have removed the registration on this forum.
my sketchbook location points to an unknown path under temp folder how do i change it? help appreciated..
Non-saved sketches use %TEMP% folder until they're saved to a specified location. Anyways, here's a sketch to display some Java special paths & configs:
println( javaVersionName ); println( System.getProperty("java.home") + "\n" ); println( System.getProperty("os.arch") ); println( System.getProperty("os.name") ); println( System.getProperty("os.version") + "\n" ); println( System.getProperty("user.home") ); println( System.getProperty("user.dir") + "\n" ); println( sketchPath ); println( dataPath("") ); exit();
The real sketchbook path is visible (and can be changed) in the Preferences dialog of the PDE.
As said, only the unsaved sketches are actually saved in the temp folder, the default path when you save is in the user directory.
