Hi,
That's true, we don't change the working directory when browsing in the
File Explorer. Why do you need that?
Cheers,
Carlos

This is not my experience Jitse.
If I use the bold folder and up-arrow icons

to change the path, the working directory changes with it.
But if I select folders in the file explorer or use the small up-arrow
icons

to change the path, the working directory does not follow.
Just updated to Spyder 3.0.2

Hello,
With Spyder 3, the directory in the IPython console is
automatically updated after you change the directory in the
toolbar (to the left of the "folder" icon). The "Set Console
Working Directory" was then removed because it was not so useful.
Does that make sense to you? It's important to me that Spyder is
reasonably intuitive especially for beginners.
There is some discussion at
https://github.com/spyder-ide/spyder/issues/2910
<https://github.com/spyder-ide/spyder/issues/2910> .
The screenshot on the Spyder GitHub page does not show Spyder 3. I
guess we should update it.
Hope this helps,
Jitse

Hi all,
I'm not sure if this is an issue with Spyder or with Anaconda,
but here it goes; I raised this same question on Stack
Overflow <http://stackoverflow.com/q/39905258/4118153> a few
days ago, so I'm just gonna copy the same text here.
I've been using Spyder 2 as my default Python IDE for a couple
of years already, and while preparing a class on Signal
Processing I've stumbled upon the new Spyder 3 on Anaconda and
decided to see what it looks like.
First, I've updated the Anaconda distribution on my Ubuntu
16.04 office computer to the newest version (i.e. I had a
previous version already installed), and then got quite
surprised when the button for "Set Console Working Directory"
on the File Explorer (top right, between the "folder" icon and
the "up arrow" icon) was missing. I can still change the
working directory manually on the IPython console, but it's
impractical and certainly won't motivate the students!
Thinking it could be a bug with the conda update, I've then
decided to give it a go at downloading and installing the
Anaconda for Windows on my home laptop (which is probably what
most of the students will do), and it also does not have the
"Set Console Working Directory" button.
By then I was thinking the new Spyder version might have
abandoned it, but strangely enough, the Spyder GitHub page has
a screenshot <https://github.com/spyder-ide/spyder> of the new
Spyder 3 that HAS this exact same button (again: top right,
between the "folder" icon and the "up arrow" icon)!
EDIT: here <http://i.stack.imgur.com/eDHih.png>'s a screenshot
of how my Spyder looks like in Windows (the big red arrow is
pointing towards where the icon should be).
Does anyone knows if there is a setting option that hides the
"Set console working directory" button, or if this is a bug in
the more recent Anaconda version that doesn't show it?
Many thanks!
