Title: paths for print queue change
Post by: BillHorne on May 10, 2022, 05:38:28 AM
I don't recall this happening in previous versions, but I just saved a job I printed, and saw that the path to images in the Print Queue changed from the original location
C:\Users\[name]\Documents\subfolder1\subfolder2\subfolder3\subfolder4\[filename.tif]dimensions
to
C:\ProgramData\ddisoftware\Qimage\Plugins\Export\2022-05-09 21.37.19 [Files]\[filename.tif],dimensions
and the image file is duplicated here.

Now I notice this option in Preferences: "When images are dropped into Qimage Ultimate", what must be a default was checked: "Create Copies in New Export Folder" instead of "View in Thumbnails" or "Add to Queue".
I'm assuming that selecting "Add to Queue" will solve this issue, yes? (And that the path change was occuring with images "dropped" into Qimage Ultimate i.e. dragged from a Windows File Explorer window.)

Thanks ;-)

You may need to run the installer again: no need to uninstall, just run the installer.  That will update the plugins with the preferred save location.
