If this is what you're intending to do: "When you hit export, the path shown will be that of the folder in which path resides. If you change this path to some other folder, then it will remember this path, and for your subsequent export, this new path will be shown. And this will work at file level." It's OK with me. Use 'for screen" dozens of times a day, definitely don't want template-files and production (export-png) to get mixed up. Have my precious template-AI-files in folder A, want any export to be in any folder B, C or elsewhere, but in folder A. Would be helpful if the once chosen folder would be remembered.
