Why can't Luminar export default to the same location as the original file? If I load up an image make some changes then go to export it Luminar won't same it in the same directory. It seems to want to put it one directory level up. Before the update it would try and create a new directory using the filename of the image. Very strange. Is this a known bug? It makes working on images a nightmare.

  Hi Matt,
  
  Thank you for sharing your thoughts on this!
  
  It's not likely it would work in such a way in the previous version. As of now, images will be exported (by default) one directory level up. I will pass your comments to our QA team for a further consideration.

  Got the same problem: Have to search for the folder for EVERY SINGLE EXPORT !
  Very ennoying!

  Plus this special issue: I click the main folder, then the subfolder. Ok. Enoying enough. Export.

  And I use freestanding version, the test above didn't work for me.

  But:

  The next picture I want to save to the same folder: I click EXPORT, then it goes to the main folder, And I have to click the subfolder EVERY SINGLE TIME ! 

  Reminds me of Windows 3.1 ... That's not really the level of Luminar ...

  No new issue: I found this same question in blogs of years and years ago. And the team-members answer is always the same, for years: Good suggestion, I'll forward it ...

  Really: How stupid, do they think, are we? And how patient?

  Please add this to the existing versions. NOW!

  This is one of the reasons I never upgraded to the newest program. It seems like a easy fix.

  Hi guys,

  Are you using Luminar 4? If so, you can easily export the image to it's original folder :)

  Please Please Please add this HUGE quality of life improvement.  No matter where my images are located in my folder structure, when i hit Luminar 4 or AIs Export button, it defaults to the last directory used.  Please just add in the option of exporting to the images original folder, PLEASE!
