Author Topic: SSC Automatically Opens Folder with screenshot (Read 15,611 times)

wraith808 · « **on:** October 03, 2013, 04:01 PM »

The behavior in SSC is that if you save the image to disk, it opens the location where you save it. This is useful... sometimes. But other times, it's a great annoyance (like when you're capturing several shots in a row). Is there a way to turn this off?

"it opens the location where you save it."

are you referring to SC opening a windows file explorer window for the directory saved in?

Yes, exactly.

Then the option you are looking for is here:

thanks, will be fixed in next version

I spoke too soon. That didn't stop the behavior. I also tried restarting, but that didn't help either.

it should. i'll look into it.

Seems to work here for me. Can you check you are using the latest version, and then if the problem persists, can you be a little more specific about what actions you take and what behavior you experience.

What about this setting?
Does it do the same thing?

mouser · « **Reply #11 on:** October 04, 2013, 03:49 AM »

gulp.. those two options seem to be saying they are for identical things..

time for me to look into this..

cmpm · « **Reply #12 on:** October 04, 2013, 03:55 AM »

fyi, i have both checked, but no windows explorer window opens after shot or save/save as

the unsaved changes come up after closing the shot, like i want it to

i do have the pop-up choice dialog set to show
and then the main window comes up with the shot
but still no windows explorer

This is only for SAVE AS when you save in a different folder from your normal screenshot folder.

cmpm · « **Reply #14 on:** October 04, 2013, 04:00 AM »

o, ok got it,
that does work

mouser · « **Reply #15 on:** October 04, 2013, 11:40 AM »

wraith try unchecking both of this. in the next version i will move and label this better -- but unchecking both should surely solve your problem.

wraith808 · « **Reply #16 on:** October 04, 2013, 03:44 PM »

So, I'm using SSC 4.5.0

It seems that the setting that cmpm pointed out changed the behavior. Even if I then check the other option that you originally pointed out, it still does not open, so that seems to do nothing.

Thanks for all of the help, everyone!

ditto

wraith808 · « **Reply #18 on:** April 26, 2014, 07:01 PM »

Ok... this came back, and both of the options are gone now!

How do I stop it from automagically opening the folder now?

mouser · « **Reply #19 on:** April 26, 2014, 07:48 PM »

Look on the Miscelaneous Tweaks tab.

wraith808 · « **Reply #20 on:** April 27, 2014, 12:29 AM »

found it. Thanks!

I like to move things around every once in a while to keep you on your toes
