Problem:

User wants to open and save the images in a user defined default directory, not the $PIXELFXDIR/images directory.

In the user resource file : $PIXELFXDIR/Pfx the following modifications can be made in the Modifiable initial settings resources area :

Uncomment ( take out the ! ) in the following lines NOTE: The directory must already exist. You can change this directory to a directory of your choice, eg. '/usr/images/

Pfx*openFileSelection.dirMask : /usr/images/
