Description:
When I setup an external tool, I tried to set the parameter and starting directory. I click OK to save the details. When I edit the setting for that external tool, the Parameter and "Working Directory" is blank. I confirmed that those fields are not saved, by looking at the tool entry in the environmentoptions.xml file. Only the Format, Title and Filename nodes are saved. No other information exists.
I noticed the issue because I have an external tool and wanted to pass the current editor file to that tools via $EdFile() macro in the Parameters field. The external application never registered a parameter being passed in.
