Model Snapshots saved at same directory level as model directory?

Post by artisan »

Is the default for where model snapshots are saved, at (a) the same level as the directory containing the model, as opposed to (b) within the model directory itself?

My thought is that the snapshots might be best stored within a directory called "Snapshots" with the directory specified for the current model. My project folder gets a little messy with the snapshots.

I may have missed the directory specifications for the snapshot in the config options, in which case I welcome and accept my scolding at this time. :)

I may make this configurable. The only reason they sit in the parent folder of the model, is that they are a "snapshot" of the model folder at that time, and it is easier to keep it separate than to code around exlcluding existing snapshots from the model folder when creating a new snapshot.

My word is final

I just changed my project folder configuration.

Model+
--> Model

Model+ keeps the main directory tidy. By saving the model into "Model", all the snapshots falls inside of Model+. That works well enough for me. ;)
