Toby,

We started using Google Drive, which keeps the directory structure
identical between computers and I was able to reproduce the sf2 path bug.

I tried importing the SF2 using several methods (1.  Using the SF2
instrument plugin. 2. Right clicking the SF2 file from "My Computer"
browser.  3. Right clicking SF2 file from "My Samples", switching between
"plugins" and "samples" in $LMMS_HOME).

I then saved the project as mmp to observe how it's being stored.  What I
observed is the path is relative every time as long as the SF2 file resides
in "lmms\samples".  If it's in "lmms\plugins" it stores the full path.
 Here are examples:

*<sf2player patch="0" chorusLevel="2" chorusDepth="8" reverbOn="0"
> reverbRoomSize="0.2" chorusOn="0" chorusSpeed="0.3" reverbDamping="0"
> chorusNum="3" reverbLevel="0.9" bank="0" reverbWidth="0.5"
> src="maraca_soundfont.sf2" gain="1"/> *

*<sf2player patch="0" chorusLevel="2" chorusDepth="8" reverbOn="0"
> reverbRoomSize="0.2" chorusOn="0" chorusSpeed="0.3" reverbDamping="0"
> chorusNum="3" reverbLevel="0.9" bank="0" reverbWidth="0.5" src="C:/Users/Tres/Google
> Drive/Music Project/plugins/soundfonts/Percussion/maraca_soundfont.sf2"gain="1"/>
> *


For now, I will convert all of our projects to use samples instead of
plugins.  Should I file a bug since it may be further reaching then just
the SF2 player?
