    How do I save files to my current project folder/subfolder instead of to where I last saved...


    Hi,I work with a number of different file types - Word, PowerPoint, Excel, JPG, PNG, etc. - for different projects. Projects are organized by folders and subfolders.It appears that whatever app or tool I'm using, when I go to save a file, it will try to save it in the folder where I last saved a file of that type instead of where I'm currently working, then I have to waste time browsing for that folder. For example, I might use PowerPoint to lay out a graphic, then convert the graphic to a PNG. I know that is not what PowerPoint is generally used for, but I find it the easiest tool to do all

    :)

    Save as: All file types saved my project as a mpdb file

    Hi Patrick,

    I am Dave, I will help you with this.

    mpdb is a database (project) file in Mixpad, thta will save the current sudio project for future editing

    You must export the audo track from Mixpad, use these steps.

    Click the 'Export Mix' button on the toolbar

    Select an File Type: from the dropdown list (mp3, wav etc).

    Select a location to save the audio track to.

    Click the Export button

    Saving a file to a folder

    Hello,

    Thanks for getting back to me. I'm opening up an attachment from a google account. When I right click I don't have the 'save as' option also I did not have that option when I checked the 'file' either...

    Please advise.

    Thank you,
