In Adobe Photoshop CS6:

Selecting Menubar / Save As… (commandshiftS) defaults to the file's current folder (expected).

Selecting Menubar / Save for Web… (commandoptionS) defaults to the ~/Documents folder (unexpected). This behavior is confusing; the file's current folder is expected.

In Adobe Illustrator CS6:

Selecting Menubar / Save As… (commandshiftS) defaults to the open file's current folder (expected).

Selecting Menubar / Export… (commandE) defaults to the open file's current folder (expected).

Selecting Menubar / Save for Web… (commandoptionS) defaults to the ~/Desktop folder (unexpected). This behavior is annoying (better than ~/Documents at least); the file's current folder is expected.

In Adobe InDesign CS6:

Selecting Menubar / Save As… (commandshiftS) defaults to the application's last saved-to folder (unexpected). This is the worst outcome; it frequently results in misplaced items. The file's current (last saved-to) folder is expected.

Selecting Menubar / Export… (commandE) defaults to the application's last save folder (unexpected). This is the worst outcome; it frequently results in misplaced items. The file's current (last saved-to) folder is expected.

I've looked through each application's preferences. Might there be something I missed, or some hack to correct this?

Thank you.

  • not an answer, but I've always used DefaultFolder to get around where things want to be saved - stclairsoft.com - an imperfect solution, but one I've lived with for 10 years.
