When I send the preset object a message like "write MySequence.maxpresets" the file is getting saved to my Applications Folder. I would prefer it get saved to a default folder in my Max search path. Does anyone have any suggestions for this? Thanks

I remade my patch so when I write .maxpresets files, it creates an absolute file path to the correct folder. Seems to work so good so far. I will post it after I troubleshoot it some more.

This is the snippet I use to create new presets. It uses the absolute file path, which works, but is not ideal for sharing as a device. I'm hoping to see how other folks on the forum use the preset object!

i use path to thispatcher. Its a way to save near a patch or a standalone hth

Thanks Mizu! That is much better, to just reference a folder, and not the whole hard drive! I didn't realize thispatcher could do that. It seems to be working in M4L devices too.
