I'm trying to programmatically save figures from a cgWindow display and I'm specifying an absolute path to cgControl, Create_PNG=MyAbsolutePath. cgWindow promptly ignores my absolute path and saves to my working directory with the same filename specified in MyAbsolutePath. Is this by design or am I using it incorrectly? Thanks.
