Title: Reports location on disk
Post by: edpnjax on March 31, 2021, 03:42:53 PM

I apologize if this has been asked or covered before, I searched and couldn't find anything.

How can I change the location where WeatherCatNOAAReports and WeatherCatReports are kept?  By default it seems to store them in Documents and for several reason I want them elsewhere.

Thanks!

You might want to talk to the Dev about that. :) I think the location of those files is hard-coded into WC.

Quote from: Page 46, WC User Manual

At midnight every day, the Daily report is saved to disk at ~/Documents/WeatherCatReports as a PDF file.

Quote from: Page 48, WC User Manual

Monthly and Annual NOAA reports are automatically saved to disk at ~/Documents/WeatherCatNOAAReports/.

Apple is getting more and more particular as to where non-Apple apps can create/write files. [banghead]
