How do I change the default 'open' path?  I see nothing in the
Preferences menus.  geany.conf has the promising 'default_open_path' but
setting it does nothing.  Funny, the default open path that is now being
used is an obscure directory that I hardly ever go to, but it won't change.
In my older Geany version, I'd guess the place to enter a default path, is under Preferences > General > Startup.
I see a section PATHS.
Under that is "Startup Path" where it can be entered. A tooltip gives some explanation.
HTH.
