Save for web location

When I go to save for web, the default location is always the last place I saved a file, and not where the PSD file i'm working on is located.

 

Is there a way to change the default location. This seems like a very bad UI decision. I don't remember it being like this previously.

This is as designed. Personally I find that logical. Considering a typical use case, you'd normally export to an asset folder. But of course an option never hurts.

 

The PS preference does not apply to SFW.

Check your settings in Preferences/File Handling, you can check/uncheck "Save As to Original Folder".

Not sure if this also applies to Save for Web.

Yes, Dag is correct. It has always been like this. As far as I know, there is no way to change the default behavior.

Its still a badly designed system. Not being able to paste the file location into the address bar is also unexcusable
