Hi,

I would like to add the folder My Documents to my project, without adding the folder path literally, as the path may change depending on the environment in which I open the project.

I tried the following:

<folder path="file://${homeDir}/Documents/Folder"/>

But this didnt work. The variable didn't get resolved when opening the project in the editor.

Help appreciated!

Hello,

I'm afraid that's not possible. Environment variables are not resolved as part of paths. The project file locations indicated by folder/@path are usually paths relative to the project folder or absolute paths, if they are on a different file system or drive.

Regards,
Adrian
