Persisting foldername property value in models

[Jonathan]

I have a property called FolderName which is bound in storage view.xaml. I set this value with folder dialog. However if I call that value from within storage view or another view.cs its always defaulted. How do I persist the values across the running app. In code base I had to hardcover value.

Hi Jonathan,

I can see in your click function:

 private void SelectFolderClick(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
        {
            RadOpenFolderDialog openFolderDialog = new RadOpenFolderDialog();

you can making new instance of the dialog every time. Instead, why not using the dialog as a private fields in this view - first, you will preserve runtime set properties of the dialog and second, load time for every new showing of dialog will be faster than creating a new dialog and showing it. 

Let me know if the suggested approach is an option or if not, please add more details regarding the scenario.
