Description
This sounds like a problem in the file finder.
mypc\shareName
From Steve King:
I was just reducing some data – in my office - for a User that has gone home but who is coming back later this week. So thought I’d be clever and put the output in the folder she was working from on an analysis PC in the LOQ Cabin.
Manage user Directories allows you to use share names… BUT Save Project doesn’t! Nor does Save Output Workspace from the SANS GUI, these insist on a mapped drive.
Problem exists in 3.0.0 and 3.1.0

- Status changed from assigned to verify
- Resolution set to worksforme
I've just tried this out using \ \ndw1185 ( our windows build server, and it is working fine), both for saving projects and within the SANS ISIS GUI.
Also tested with \ \olympic\babylon5
Double slashes have a space as TRAC will not show them without.
I have gotten back in touch with Steve King.

The issue turned out to be for some of the file dialog we use the QT box, andothers we use the system ones. One of them (the Qt one I think) uses a drop down list for the current path, while the other uses a combobox allowing paths to be typed.
However both allow paths to be typed in the filename box and work fine that way, it is just that Steve did not know that was possible - now explained.
