File browser proposal: Save the file browser settings in sessions and .blend files
The new file browser: In some situations it makes a step forward, but in some a big step backward.
Here my note and feature request I've mentioned already in the developer discussions:
My most missing feature is to get the same file browser window settings every time, when I reopen it. I really don’t like to set my view filters anew to my preferred needs, everytime when I open the file browser.
It would help us a lot, if the file window would not only remember the same recent location, but the recent filter settings too. And the very best would be, if this settings would be saved into the blend file to reuse them the next time.
So here my wishes, that would solve a lot of problems in my opinion:
- Save the file window user settings for the current session and individual Blender areas, if possible (Individual file windows seetings for Scene files, image files, append files etc.), .
- Don’t reset the file window settings like position, size, file paths or filters, when the window will be reopened in any area.
- Save the file window status into the current .blend file to use it for future work. So when reopening the scene, then all file paths and filters in the file browsers will remember the last work session status, if possible.
What do you thing about this?
