Changing the Default Folder for Screenshots

Open 2arch opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

What Happened?

Hi, I want to save all screenshots to go to my obsidian vault, and to do so I need to change the default folder for screenshots.

What can I edit in the source so that I can make this feature available?

Steps to Reproduce

Searched online on forums, but all solutions seem to be outdated

Expected Behavior

Screenshot -> /custom/directory instead of Screenshot /Pictures/Screenshots

OS Version

7.x (Horus)

Software Version

Latest release (I have run all updates)

Log Output

No response

Hardware Info

No response

The workflow for screenshots is being rethought in #253 and that includes the possibility of specifying the destination rather than defaulting to the Screenshots folder. As a workaround you could try replacing the actual screenshots folder with a symbolic link to your desired location (renamed to Screenshots)
