[Image Toolbox] Not remembering last used directory
Hello everyone,
I know that the old Image Toolbar addon used to remember the last used directory (granted; only for the specific file type and not for every following image file) for the rest of the session.
So for example when I saved a PNG file in D:\Stuff\MoreStuff\, the next time I click on the save icon on a PNG the save as dialog would open at D:\Stuff\MoreStuff\ again.
But with Image Toolbox, it will always reset to the default directory (the Downloads folder). So this makes the addon a bit useless for me, because now it's faster to just click on Save As, because Pale Moon does indeed open the save as dialog at the last used directory.
Maybe it's just a config problem, but can't really find any settings related to this.
In PM I have 'ask me where to save files' selected (default is Downloads folder).
In Image Toolbox I have 'prompt for a location and filename' selected.
Please tell me if I missed anything.
Pale Moon v25.5.0 x64
Image Toolbox 1.0.0

Re: [Image Toolbox] Not remembering last used directory
The choices are to save to default downloads folder or set a custom folder.. Then you have the options to save automagically or prompt.. but it will always open in the downloads folder or the custom folder you set.. .. Or should. The code is almost identical to Image Toolbar so it will operate as the parent extension did.

Catnip,
it's true: ImageToolbox can't remember last used directory.
Image Toolbar can remember it, instead: tested on Firefox, Waterfox and Cyberfox.
I had to remove Image Toolbox 'cause is quite useless now.

Re: [Image Toolbox] Not remembering last used directory
Well I can look into why it isn't.. I don't remember that being in the functionality when I last used Image Toolbar..

Re: [Image Toolbox] Not remembering last used directory
I have taken a look at the last version compatible with Pale Moon 24 on Pale Moon 24.. This is indeed a regression.. I will be looking into this.. I may have to downgrade the codebase back to that version and add improvements manually.. I am however very busy so it may take a bit..
Obviously the fixed version someone made of the then latest version wasn't as complete as some would think.. So, will be looking into that..
When I do get it up to snuff it will come through as an update via the add-ons manager.

Hello Matt,
if you could find the time to look at the script, that would be amazing. Take your time.
I'm not sure how this whole Github thing works (pull request is submitting your own code?), but I want to thank you for everything you've done so far for the PM Project.
Cheers
