Dear,

I did example of motionview about trunk opening

I save project as a .mvw file

Looking inside file, i see command *FileReference that points to file trunk.mdl with absolute path (C:/users/tinh/documents/trunk.mdl)

I copy project to other computer and could not open the session due to reference file not found

 

Is it possible to make file reference relatively always?

 

also in mdl file, if there is a graphic locating by some file (not primitive graphic), it points to the file absolutely

so mdl file could not be opened when moving project folder

    I see also this 'feature'. I work not often with .mvw so I edit it directly with vim editor image/emoticons/default_smile.png' alt=':)' srcset='/emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x' width='20' height='20'>
