This issue already appears some weeks ago..

- the "[RO] panel file path" isn't displayed correctly, it always displays an old path of a panel which I've saved some weeks ago.
- When pressing "Save as" in the upper fixed menu bar - the last path isn't remenbered, I always have to browse all the way to the dedicated folder where the panel is.
- When pressing "Save" Ctrlr doesn't save directly, it also opens the browser (it reacts like when I want to "save as"), but with the difference that you don't have the possiblity to choose the format of the saved file (as it should be when using "Save"))
- In the floating menu bar "Save/Save as" works in converse to the fixed upper menu... Using "Save as" works like "Save" (in the fixed menu), using "Save" works like "Save as" (in the fixed menu).

It's not the biggest issue, because it's possible to save your files... though it's always a bit confusing.

    i can't really confirm that, i checked both toolbars with new created panels and did save (first time it is as saveAs sure, but that's why Ctrlr does not have a path to save it to), after that each save is just an update on the last path that was used for the SaveAs.

    Ah ok - that's how saving in Ctrlr works. In other programs I'm used to the method that "Save" doesn't need a path when the current loaded project already has a path (then "Save" just takes this path). When I'm loading a panel in Ctrlr.. then I press "Save" & choose the path... everything is working (except that I still have to choose the "save as" path everytime again). I could swear that older v5 versions worked like all other programs that I know (Ctrlr was remembering the "Save as" path, and it didn't needed a "save" path when I just make some changes on a already loaded panel).

    But no problem - I can live with that! :)
