Viewer wants to save textures in the app.
closed
Marianne McCann
I'm on DeltaFPS on a Mac running Sonoma. Every time I go to save a texture from my inventory to my computer, if offers to save it inside there Second Life viewer app bundle, in Contents > Resources. It will not remember last location. This is saving it in the application bundle, which seems like it could cause issues with the viewer, and makes it very hard to get to. Surely this was an error when the app was being built?

Frankk Parisi, it appears Canny decided to merge your ticket into this old one. Not much is in this ticket, so I'd rather that one is the one that gets addressed instead of re-opening this one. The information on this ticket was made in 2024, and the viewer has changed considerably in that timeframe.

How has this not been addressed since 2024? Presume it will now be re-opened given my post below? Its surely not a difficult fix (at least to change default to downloads folder)

Jellyfish I have filed a new canny on this but see it has been merged here - to a closed issue - can you please confirm this will now be re-opened.

Atlas Linden Please can we get this post re-opened. It remains an issue and the default save folder = ~/downloads can be easily fixed (i have a code fragment to do it if helpful) thanks

Hi Marianne,
Unfortunately we've been unable to reproduce this issue.
Has this only appeared recently for you? And have you uploaded, modified or saved anything into this folder outside of the viewer?
