Setting the Default Location for Your Workspaces

To help you organize your Author projects, you can change the default location where HotDocs creates your new workspaces.

If you want HotDocs to automatically open the Tutorials pane on Workspace Explorer when you open your Tutorials workspace, then, at the time you create your Tutorials workspace, you must set the Default Location for Workspaces to the default location on your machine that HotDocs provides in the Workspace Location box – e.g., C:\Users\admin\Documents\HotDocs Author.

To change the default location where HotDocs creates your workspaces

1. Open the HotDocs Options dialog box.
2. In the left column, click Workspaces.
3. Either type a new path in the Default Location for Workspaces text box or to the right, click the Browse button and navigate to the location on disk where you want HotDocs to place any new workspaces you create.
