Description Paul Pazderski CLA 2019-07-10 16:28:50 EDT
A new bug for Benedikt's contribution started in bug 365930 comment 5.

(Benedikt Kuntz from bug 365930 comment #5)
> In 20190614-1200, in import dialogs (general, maven...), the last paths are
> persisted (you may have to drop-down the combo box to see the entries).
> 
> There are some other strange things: In the Import Projects Wizard, the
> "close newly imported..." and "hide projects that ..." selections are not
> persisted.
> 
> I will try to add a gerrit to fix this....

(Benedikt Kuntz from bug 365930 comment #7)
> With the change, the dialog now sets the path selection (archive or
> directory) to the latest available path if one is there. The browse button
> uses this path as root directory (as before).
> Also, the two other checkboxes are persisted.
> This behaviour is different than the other data import wizards (Existing
> Maven Projects, etc.) but the same as the Import Preferences wizard (same
> file will be selected again)...
