Addon.DefaultInstallationPath

Sets or returns the default installation folder (siInstallationPath) for the add-on (by default, siUserPath). Users can choose a different installation folder when they install the add-on.

Note: The default installation folder is automatically used when a user drags an add-on to Softimage.
