How can I get an export script $filename to specify a file in the tracks directory that Mp3Tag tag panel shows labelled 'Directory:'?

I find no environment variable for this.

Thanks.

I am not totally sure, perhaps ... **%\_folderpath%'...'**

Thanks D, but that does not work here.

Nor would I expect it to. %\_folderpath% refers to the track, not the app state.

That's it. Thanks D. I'd missed that placeholder in the Help for Export.
