Thanks for the reply and your explanation, yes, it makes things clearer,
thanks.
What I tried to do is to change the location of the 'Sextante' folder.
This is now automatically created in my home folder each time I start up
QGIS (if it isn't already there). I would like to have that folder in
another location that better fits how I organize my folders.
I though I could change that in the general settings, but I think I
misunderstood that option. Does this mean the location of the folder
sextante is 'hard coded' somewhere as 'home/sextante'? If so, is there a
way I can change that? I hope my question makes sense, otherwise, I
might not have understood things completely after all :-/
Cheers,
Paulo

If you do not change anything, the file isnot created, since it uses
the default values
However, Sextante does not seem to do anything with that path, it keeps
using the default folder (user/sextante).
what do you mean with "it keeps using". If you enter a filename like
"myraster.tif" (without a full path), it will save it to [output
folder]/myraster.tif
That is how the output folder works, and as far as I can tell, is
working fine in the latest version.
If you click on the button on the right of the selection panel, it
will open the default folder, but only if you haven't used it before.
otherwise, it will open the file selection fialog in the last folder
that you used.
If you do not enter any filename, the output goes to a temporary file,
and those files are always kept in user/sextante/tempdata, since it is
assumed that are temporary and should be deleted. Otherwise, you
should have entered a full pathname or at least a filename.
Hope this makes things a bit clearer
Regards
