ArcGIS Pro SDK Add-In C#: How to get /set the Home Folder Option Path

JadedEarth — Sun, 23 Jan 2022 09:32:26 GMT

Is it possible to set programmatically the Home Folder Path of a project? And then also get the path after setting it?

I can manually set it in Options settings. But having problems trying to get the home folder path in my program.

I don't want to use the default C:\ drive since sometimes users have no access to it in our servers.

Appreciate any help.

Never mind. Found out the solution:

var homeDir = Project.Current.HomeFolderPath; var drive = Directory.GetDirectoryRoot(homeDir); if (drive == "C") { //Set the current directory. Project.Current.SetHomeFolderPath(working_folder); } else { //Disable controls TboxWorkingDir.IsEnabled = false; BtnSetup.IsEnabled = false; }
