export all settings and custom panels

Hi,

Is it possible to export all TVPaint settings at once (Keyboard shortcuts, color scheme, custom panels, layout) , and open this on a different computer, on a different TVPaint licence? (one version is TVP 11.5.1Pro, the other version would be TVP 11.5.1 Standard)
Or do I have to export/import everything separately?


Thanks!

Hello Joost, these must be exported sepaterately.

But I think you can copy/ paste all the configuration to the new computer.

Ok thanks for letting me know!

Maybe a good feature request?... :D

We will take a look into this but since the files are in different folders, some of which can be customized by the user, it could take a little while to define how the tool would work.
Anyway, if anyone stumbles upon this thread: as a reminder, here is our documentation about exporting custom settings

In the end, it wasn't too much work to export everything separately.

But I can imagine that it still can be pretty handy to be able to export everything at once.
(for example: I forgot to export one panel, and my new computer is 30 minutes away by bike from my other computer...)

So thanks for looking into this!

Having a one-click-solution for this would be a sale point for studios ... imagine initializing 10+ TVP workstations with the same production settings by hand!
