pages default export directory

Hello,

If I save a pages document, then export it, I wish it would default to the directory where I just saved the original document. Instead it defaults to the directory to which I last exported. Is there a way to change this default behavior?

Thank you.

I don't understand how you may get that.

The Save dialog and the Export one doesn't share the default path.

The only way which I am aware allowing to get this behavior is to Save As Word but in this case, technically speaking it's an Export task but the practice is different: you don't use the Export track.

So, if you want to work with two folders,

use Save for documents saved as native ones,
use Export for documents saved in a foreign format.
