After Idle Disconnect, Local Dir Reverts to Default Local Path
Here is a bug I've noticed recently, it never occurred with previous versions.
Steps to reproduce :
1. To simplify this explanation, let us assume the site's settings (in Site Manager) are Remote Path /1/ and Local Path /1/
2. I connect to the site and navigate to another directory both on the local and remote browsers, let us assume /2/ and /2/
3. After some time the connection drops due to Idle Timeout.
4. I then initiate a file transfer from the local browser which still shows /2/ to the remote browser which still shows /2/ and the transfer is successful after an automatic reconnection, BUT immediately after the transfer the local browser changes back to the default path of /1/ while the remote browser remains displaying /2/
Conclusion : After an idle disconnect and then a subsequent transfer, the local browser mistakenly reverts to default path. This didn't happen with previous versions. Also note that if manually clicking the 'Reconnect' button the browsers are not affected and so remain where they were, this bug happens if the reconnection occurs through an action (eg. transferring a file, possibly other actions which I haven't noticed).
This is a major problem for me because I am working with directories that contain identical filenames but different contents, and so when the local path changes itself I don't see any immediate difference resulting in me accidentally transferring the wrong files!
I am using FlashFXP v4.2.4 build 1784 on Windows 7.
