Customing the Default Look in Location
You can customize the default location for the Resource ManagerLook in option using preferences. Note that the setting of the Synchronize Location Across Tabs menu choice and associated set ditasynctab command also affects the Look in location. If tab synchronization is turned on, then any location you set at start up only applies until the user navigates to a different location in the Resource Manager browser.
You can use the following preferences to set the Look in location for specific tabs:
com.arbortext.dita.lastAccessDirForLinkXrefPaneLink/Xref tab
com.arbortext.dita.lastAccessDirForImagePaneImage tab
com.arbortext.dita.lastAccessDirForTopicContentReferencePaneConref tab on the Resource Manager for DITA topics
com.arbortext.dita.lastAccessDirForMapContentReferencePaneInsert Conref dialog box for DITA maps.
com.arbortext.dita.lastAccessDirForKeyDefPaneKey Definition tab
com.arbortext.dita.lastAccessDirForTopicsPaneTopic tab
com.arbortext.dita.lastAccessDirForXincludePaneInclusion dialog box
For example, you could use the following ACL code to set the default Look in location for the Link/Xref tab to C:\demo:
set_user_property(\
"com.arbortext.dita.lastAccessDirForLinkXrefPane", \
"C:\\demo");
