Default Location for Post Process Files

Running on Mac/Yosemite... How do I change the Default Save-To location for Post Process files? It defaults to a location that I do no want to use.

 

Thanks for your help.

See attached video that demonstrates how the Post Processor is returning to the "nc" folder.

This seems like a small problem until processing a bunch of files, then it gets old real quick.

yup, same behaviour for me.. I can change that default location in post processor as much as I like, it defaults back..

 

I have tried

 

Using Cloud Library for both machine and post processor

Using a Network drive

Using a local drive instead of network drive

Using a folder within the network drive (not just picking top level)

Using a folder within a local drive

 

I dont seem to be able to get anything to stick.

Good morning,

We are looking at moving to NC programs to be the default way of post-processing. This will store settings & options that you use for post-processing and should improve the overall experience. To switch this on, enable the 'post-process with NC programs' featureflag in the preferences dialog

Fusion 360 is still not able to remember my paths - I am looking for the solution suggested here by GeorgeRoberts. 
@GeorgeRoberts : could you point where I can get this done in Fusion360 for Mac?
I have attached a screenshot from my Preferences-pane, where it doesn't give me this option .

I have to say I'm getting pretty disappointed at this moment with this issue which IMO needs just a simple fix.

Good morning, 

 

The feature I mentioned above can be found inside of the 'preview features' section inside of the preferences dialog:

It's a shame Post Process doesn't get it. Setup Sheet knows where it's at 😉 Always remembers!
