I'm experimenting with the new translation features in V7beta4. Here's my problem:

When I generate a translation for my skin, the .pot file is not saved to my project's translations folder. Instead, here's the path and filename:
/Library/Application Support/GardenGnomeSoftware/Autobackup/skin-2022-06-09(11-05-51)_translations/skin-2022-06-09(11-05-51).pot

I want the .pot file to have the same name as my skin, and I want it to appear in my translations folder. How do I set those preferences?

Hi,

I've experienced the same issue. I think it happens if you create a skin translation .pot file after an automatic skin backup is performed but before the skin has been saved after the backup is created.

My tip would be to save the skin and then create the translation .pot file straight after the save.
