Change Default Post Processor Folder

Is it possible to change the default folder for post processors? We have many posts that we have customized specific to our applications and we store them on a server so that all of our users have access to the most current release of the posts. (We also use HSMWorks in Solidworks, which has a different set of default library locations)

 

We'd like to change the default location so that when a user clicks Setup->Use Personal (or Installed) Post Library, that it takes them to our location on the server. Currently, users just make sure the current folder is our networked post folder which works fine, but we're looking for ways to reduce the chances of someone ending up with the wrong post. Has anyone had any luck with changing the default folder path? Thanks-

Hi @luke37QMQ 

 

Put all of your posts into your Assets folder.  Anyone that is working in your team would then be able to access the posts via the cloud.

How do you change the local folder, which is shown in the picture? Fusion cloud is not an acceptable solution, because it makes it very inconvenient to edit and trial them, as you would need to upload the new version after every change.

You can just edit the cloud posts and they sync automatically, no upload required. Doesn't get much easier than that.

Pretty sure what you are looking for is linked folder.
