<ul></ul><p>File|Open now initially opens into the $KEPLER/demos directory and remembers where the last location was (until shut-down).</p> Kepler - Bug #2990: file|open dialog should open in workflows directoryhttps://projects.ecoinformatics.org/ecoinfo/issues/2990?journal_id=102952008-04-23T22:47:51ZChristopher Brookscxh@eecs.berkeley.edu
<ul></ul><p>I'm reopening this bug because if the user uses the kepler.sh script<br />then having File->Open open kepler/demos is odd. Instead we should<br />open the current directory where the user invoked kepler.sh.</p>
<p>The same is probably true for kepler.bat and kepler.exe. We might<br />want to consider creating a bin directory and placing these scripts<br />and exes in that directory so that the user can place $KEPLER/bin<br />in their path.</p>
<p>My rationale on this is that if you think about how a user works on a system,<br />they are probably working on workflows in their own directory, not <br />in kepler/demos/.</p>
<p>There is a difference between when a program is invoked from the command<br />line and when it is invoked from a menu choice.<br />- If a command is invoked from the command line, then File <del>> Open should<br />open the current directory<br /></del> If the command is invoked from a menu choice, then the File -> Open<br />should ideally open the last directory that was opened (even in a previous<br />run). Or, having kepler/demos opened is a reasonable work around.</p>
<p>These are just my $0.02. This bug was closed before we had kepler.sh and<br />kepler.bat.</p> Kepler - Bug #2990: file|open dialog should open in workflows directoryhttps://projects.ecoinformatics.org/ecoinfo/issues/2990?journal_id=102962013-03-27T21:21:56ZRedmine Admin
