Error message on first use......Couldn't create the project directory

<< < (2/2)

KMdS:
Sure thing Blue, makes sense to post what the issue was....

Make sure the project folder for your project is eplicitly placed within the /home/pi/ directory by including this as part of the path to the desired directory you are creating, otherwise you get a permission error that causes the returned error "Couldn't create the project directory:'the name of the  directory given for the project'". You can also use the little folder select button to select the base directory and append the name of any specific folder you are creating the the path returned as well. Hope that makes sense, it's just a difference in implementation between windows and linux that I'm just getting used to.

You can't make changes to any files outside of the /home/pi directory without explicit administrator privileges which are generally available only from within the terminal using the "sudo" command.
