    Please let us specify location for user created data

    Only backup location can be specified, which seems a bit surprising to me since there are many excellent reasons for people to store data elsewhere than in the C:\ partition under Windows.

    I found a forum post saying there would be a way. Please let us know.

    Thank you in advance for your help

    Hi

    Saving / Exporting the actual FBD files externally form the application database is something we're looking into for a future version.

    I'll avoid all the technicalities but this was a necessity when ND was first introduced. Since then some enhancements have been made to the 3rd party tools we use, thus allowing us to add more functionality and flexibility going forward.

    For now I'd recommend pointing the ND backup folder to a separate partition or drive. IF your HDD gives up the ghost you can re-install ND, drag n drop the NeckDiagramsBackup.zip straight into the Diagram Gallery and voila, everything is restored.

    You can already export the FBD files if you want to store elsewhere / share. He's a 30 sec vid
