Change the target of "My Projects" link

In Scratch, when you go to File - Open... menu item and then click "My Projects" button, the project location is defaulted to be [System Drive]...My Documents\Scratch Projects. How can I change it to point to my own location?

Thank you!

This seems to belong in All About Scratch, moving. ^^

Well, don't worry about it, the Zara siggy will be back soon, new and improved! ^^ Meanwhile, just do what the sig tells you to. >.>

I'm not sure what you mean... is it the project or the "My Projects" folder you are trying to move?

Re: Change the target of "My Projects" link

If you refer to the README for scratch 1.4, it says
Customizing the default home folder

By default, Scratch assumes that the user folder is on the local C: drive. However, in networked settings, user folders are often kept on a networked drive. Adding this to the Scratch.ini file:

Home=J:\MySchool\Students\Grade5\*

will tell Scratch that user folders are kept in the folder J:\MySchool\Students\Grade5\. Note that the asterisk is replaced by the name of the logged in user. You may omit the asterisk if you want all users to share the same folder for their Scratch projects. That might be done to facilitate students working together.

Hope that helps!  smile

Re: Change the target of "My Projects" link

Thanks, fg123! Do you know if this can be applied to the default folder to export sprites into as well? (I couldn't find it in the ReadMe.)
