How can I set up GeoLab to use my own project directory as default directory?
The trick here is to edit the properties of a Window’s shortcut to specify the default directory. Such a shortcut is created in the GeoLab folder when you install GeoLab, or you can create your own shortcut (one for each project for example). To specify the default directory, right-click on the shortcut and select Properties. In the dialog that appears, click the Shortcut tab, enter the desired directory path in the “Start in:” edit box, and click OK. When you run GeoLab by double-clicking on the shortcut, the default directory will be set to the one you entered.
