#239 closed enhancement (released)

Use more sensible default for saving and exporting

Description

Currently the default save/export directory for the apps is the "AppData" directory, which is normally a hidden folder. This is fine for application data (settings, cache, etc) but isn't the best place to save the user's files to. As discussed we need a better alternative, with Environment.SpecialFolder.Personal seemingly like the best compromise.

  • Make WinForms use "Personal" folder (My Documents in WinXP)

Closing, since GTK# UI doesn't seem to use the same "app data" constant anywhere.
