I just upgraded from Autocad Map 3D 2014 to 2015. In my job I export to PDF repeatedly to a file structure where the files are stored by building #. In the 2014 version, after I exported the first .DWG file to a specific folder, when I went to export the 2nd & 3rd files the Dialogue window came back up to the same folder automatically. (In the below example, after exporting First_Floor.PDF to [Bldg 2000] the next export dialogue box would show the [Bldg 2000] folder's files.) In the 2015 version, I have to repeatedly work my way back through the file structure every time.
[PDF Files]
[Bldg 1000]
[Bldg 2000]
First_Floor.PDF
Second_Floor.PDF
Third_Floor.PDF
[Bldg 3000]
etc.
Is there some sort of global variable that sets this? I have been through lots of help screens and can't seem to find a setting that fixes that. My file structure would look something like the following: (Folders are in brackets.)
Hi,
not tried, just a guess: look to sysvar REMEMBERFOLDERS (>>>details<<<), does that help?

Thanks for your suggestion, but it didn't work. If I "print" to PDF instead of exporting it seems to work ok, so I have a work around. But I'd prefer to export if anyone has a solution. Just a personal preference I guess. Thanks again!
