Description
Your idea
I keep PDFs of my scores in a folder separate from the scores. Whenever I export a PDF it opens the scores folder instead of remembering the folder I last exported to.
Problem to be solved
Loosing time over re-selecting my preferred export folder every single time I need to export a score.
It would be nice to either remember the folder from last export or allow users to set a default export folder. I prefer the first solution as it works without additional UI elements cluttering the settings.
