   Hi there,

   I just noticed that in the project file the path stored are absolute.
   It is possibl to save it relative just to make easy to move project from one foder to another?

   Hi,

   PN does try to use relative paths where it can work them out, where is your project file stored in relation to the files?

   Thanks.

   Hi,

   Assuming i'm working on drive R:\ where R:\ is a Network Drive I have a structure like this:
   

   R:\
   |
   \My Project 1
   \My Project 2
       |
       \Source
          |
          \My Source Here
       \Workspaces
          |
          \PN
            |
            \My PN Workspace Here

   My PN ppg file look like this:
   

   <Workspace name="My Group"><Project path="My Project 2.pnproj"></Project>
   <Project path="R:\My Project 1\WorkSpaces\My Project 1.pnproj"></Project></Workspace>

   My PN pnproj My Project 2.pnproj looks like this:
   

   <Project name="My Project 2"><Folder name="My Project 2"><File path="R:\My Project
   2\Source\Main.c"></File><File path="R:\My Project 2\Source\Main.h"></File></Folder>
   </Project>

   I tryed to change manually the path in the pnproj file and i noticed PN open the files
   correctly but if i save the project again they return as absolute path again :(
   It would be also awesome if the file was more structured (1 line for entry or something like this) just to make easy manual projects management

   Try moving everything (including project files) you have on R:\ to R:\projects\. Then update project files manuly and then it should work then.

   Thanks Nux,

   if the project is in the same folder of source it works but i need it in a different folder, and also workspaces file ppg need to keep project from different folder

   I'm bumping this thread instead of creating a new one. I notice that relative paths are still not supported in magic folders. Can this be added please?
