6.3.3    Selecting a target directory

The dialog "Select target directory" also exists for every function of Governikus DATA Boreum. However, the function "Validate" displays this setting in the "Options" dialog otherwise it is to be found at the given name.

The target directory contains the files after execution of a selected function. The dialog offers two options. You can either use the source directory or select a new target directory. The selection is framed blue.

·     Use source folder: This is the default selection. After executing the selected function, the result files are saved to the same directory that contains the source files.

·     Select target folder: This option opens the file chooser dialog. Here you can determine the target directory that will contain all result files. The path to the directory is displayed underneath the button "Select target folder".

In this dialog you have the possibility to save your settings. Check the box "Save as default and skip in the future" on the lower left part of the dialog. The next figure shows the dialog with the selected checkbox.
