Bug Description

Windows 7, 32-bit
XiboClient 1.5.0 (as reported by the Client Options "About" button)

In Client Options, Advanced tab, set "Log to Disk Location" to a custom setting such as:
C:\Users\user\AddData\Local\Digital Signage\XiboLog.txt

When the Client is running, press "i" then select Save Log. A message appears, stating "Log saved as C:\Program Files\Xibo\XiboLog.txt" Notice the path shown is the folder holding the XiboClient executable.

Even though the incorrect path was shown in the message, the client successfully wrote the log file into the custom path I had specified.

This isn't a bug, just a misunderstanding.

The "Log to disk location" is for an automatically saved log (i.e. that log file existed before you even pressed save). I think it would be better to have a save as dialog open when you clicked that save log button - this would be far clearer.
