APP not saving file...

Mar 28 2026 APP 2.0.0-beta40 will be released in 7 days.

It did take a long time to have the work finished on this and it  will have a major performance boost of 30-50% over 2.0.0-beta39 from calibration to integration. We extensively optimized many critical parts of APP. All has been tested to guarantee correct optimizations. Drizzle and image resampling is much faster for instance, those modules have been completely rewritten. Much less memory usage. LNC 2.0 will be released which works much better and faster than LNC in it's current state. And more, all will be added to the release notes in the coming weeks...

Update on the 2.0.0 release & the full manual

We are getting close to the 2.0.0 stable release and the full manual. The manual will soon become available on the website and also in PDF format. Both versions will be identical and once released, will start to follow the APP release cycle and thus will stay up-to-date to the latest APP version.

Once 2.0.0 is released, the price for APP will increase. Owner's license holders will not need to pay an upgrade fee to use 2.0.0, neither do Renter's license holders.

I have noticed that since the last update, APP does not save the files into the working folder I select.  It saves the files into folders I had used on previous sessions.

Is this a known bug?

It should, unless you pick another directory when it asks to save the results?

@vincent-mod. it sends the files into a previous session directory not the one I specified when I opened the "now opened" session.  I never had that problem until the last update in February.

Mmm, I'm forwarding this to Mabula, I don't think much changed in just the latest version here, but could be wrong..

@tempusfugitxxii, in the latest version we had a big update of the file save module. Normally, the results in 2), 4),5),6) were always placed in the Working Directory. Now you can adjust this with the Set Save Directory button.

We have not yet implemented that APP will remember the working directory of a previous session, so this can not be the case here. You must have set it to a different location with the Set Save Dir I assume?

It is happening to me right now.   I did a session an hour ago. Closed APP and then came back for a second session for a different target.

The 1st session was no problem but when saving during the second session, APP sends the saved files to the previous directory that I had selected in session #1.  It does not pick the directory I selected when starting session #2.

Hi @tempusfugitxxii,

From that screenshot I can not tell what is happening. And what are you saving here while being in menu 4)Register? Are you saving a frame with the Save button below the histogram? That folder can always be adjusted by clicking on Directory and will show the latest path that you were I think, and not the Working Directory.

What I am saying is: the folder in which the files will be saved with the save button under the histogram does not always correspond to the working directory. This is new with this release.  Was that intended to be the case?  If yes, I'll know better from now on.

Hi @tempusfugitxxii,

Indeed, that is new in this release with the new file saver which is much more flexible than before 😉

It look like you are saving registered frames with the save button below the histogram? It would be easier and better to do it with the Save Registered Frames option at the bottom of menu 4). That will always save in your Working Directory by default, unless you explicitely set the Save Directory with the set Save Directory button above the save registered frames button 😉
