Another nasty regression? Extract frame (to project) doesn't remember working dir anymore?

2017-01-20 Thread Harald Albrecht
Anyone else seeing this potential new regression in extract frame (to project)? The dialog doesn't remember the previously set directory anymore and falls back to $HOME, which is a terrible thing when working with projects. Could this be a regression introduced by the recent work on Windows,
