If local folder is not chosen, locally saved files are nowhere to be found

Every time we launch the editor the Folder needs to be picked.
If this does not happen, choosing to create a file in the Computer Storage creates the file in the editor,
but when saving, although the operation is reported as successful, the file is not saved to any place the user can easily find.
I have run a search on my Mac and the file created and saved could not be found.
IMO there are two ways to approach this...
-
Quick way
- trigger to pick the Local Folder on save if it's not defined
-
Best way
- trigger to pick the Local Folder on save if it's not defined
- save the chosen folder to persistent storage in a pref file
This has led to loss of files during my last teaching gig
In my original idea, the save button should simply not be clickable if you haven't selected a folder.
There is also a feature idea for once the folder is picked to be remembered when you reopen the app.
I think we should take the persistent storage idea separately.
