Hi!
I would like to offer the option to save a (NS)document to a fixed
location. I.e. the user is free to chose the file name, but not the
location.
One option I see is to set the document as delegate to the
NSSavePanel and have it reset the target directory each time the
user changes it. That ought to work, but does not seem to be good
UI. I'd rather forbid the change than reverse it.
The other option is to write my own save panel. But then I'd have
to handle quite some stuff myself that NSSavePanel ought to take
care of. E.g. duplicate file names.
Thoughts welcome...
Best,
Pierre
You could not bother with any sort of save panel and simply save the
file to the location you want. In my app, the user can save groups
of settings to be reloaded. The settings are saved as plists and I
save them to the Application Support/myApp folder. This way the user
doesn't need to decide where to put the saved settings and navigate
to them when he/she wants to reload them.
