Moving Images to another PC during processing...

...results in the image file location being stored somewhere so you can't finish things off.

If you start on a low power laptop for example and have the files stored in C:\Users\<username>\Documents\ and later move the entire folder to a higher powered machine to finish the processing when you get to the Drizzle integration if FAILS because it can't find the original file location.  Storing file locations in files/projects is just such bad programing practice...

You should save your work as a project (file>save project) and then transfer the xosm files across.

This has already been answered before:

If you specify an input directory in the DrizzleIntegration tool, it will override file directories stored in .drz files. It's that simple.

Criticizing the work and programming practices of others is delicate; one should always double-check one's arguments before doing that.

Juan, et al

I do appreciate the help.  Don't get me wrong.  I, like many, am a big fan of PI.  The support you and the community provide is amazing for the price of the software.

However, if the application didn't store these values, then the Input Directory override wouldn't be necessary as a workaround.  I'd still like to see this become an unnecessary feature of the tool down the road, but now that I know about it, it's less of an issue.
