How can i save my files in a specific directory ?

Hi everyone;

What to change in this line of code to save my files in a specific directory ?

auto filename = QFileDialog::getSaveFileName(this, "Save", QDir::rootPath(), "CSV File(*.csv)");

The one named dir for which you are presently passing QDir::rootPath()?

Note that this does not force the user to save in that directory, it starts them there but they could still navigate to a different directory if they want. Depends whether you have an absolute requirement.

@JonB ,
That's the point i want to sugguest a default Directory, than the user is free to save where ever he wants.

@imene Then that's fine you have your answer.

@JonB sorry but i mean i want to sugguest path Directory not the default one that QDir::rootPath() lead to it.

Yes, exactly. And I answered. It's the dir parameter. Change passing QDir::rootPath() as the value for that, pass whatever directory you want instead. How much clearer than that to answer your question?

Additionally, while you can specify any directory you want with that parameter, the QStandardPaths class may be useful if you want to specify the user's Documents or Desktop (and others) folder.
