<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px; -qt-user-state:0;">you won't believe it but that hasn't been built in. eric uses the standard behavior of the QFileDialog, when no "directory" is given. According to the docs it will use the current working directory. Which situations would you suggest to be changed?</p>
