Changing Your Working Directory

When you first start a Open or Save dialog, LibreOffice displays your working directory. To change this first directory:

1. Choose - LibreOffice - Paths.

2. Click \<emph\>My Documents \</emph\>and click the\<emph\> Edit button, or \</emph\>double-click on \<emph\>My Documents\</emph\>.

3. In the \<emph\>Select Path\</emph\> dialog, choose the work directory you want and click \<emph\>OK\</emph\>.

When you change to different directories in Open or Save dialog, LibreOffice will display the last directory used.

You also use this procedure to change the directory displayed by LibreOffice when you want to insert a graphic. Choose - LibreOffice - Paths - Images, then follow step 3.
