Import dialog won't persist Destination panel

[Meteoroz]

I've read lots of posts about how to restore the destination panel if it's missing from the import dialog, so I know how to do that, but WHY doesn't it stay there for the next import?

Creating an import preset doesn't help. Every time you bring up the import dialog, you have to right-click and select 'Destination'. Is there any way to have the Destination panel show by default?

I'm using MacOS and Lightroom 5.7.

Try resetting LR's preferences: http://www.lightroomforums.net/showthread.php?25197-Resetting-the-lightroom-preferences-file-updated . That often fixes things when LR's user interface goes wonky.

Thanks John, but that does nothing.

It seems that Lightroom 5 is broken somewhat in MacOS.
