Sharing shortcuts/brushes/etc

Is there a way to share shortcuts/brushes/custom panels etc.?

For Anime Studio we all share a dropbox where we save our user settings, tools, brushes etc, it's very handy if you're helping someone out on their shot and you know the shortcuts.

The nice thing about using dropbox for settings is that when I add a shortcut the other users almost get the same shortcut on app restart.

Because TVPaint is so shortcut dependant this would be good to have this too.
If we could choose where we can save our settings, so everyone would always be up to date with the same shortcuts and brushes that would be great. Even if some users use mac and other use windows.


...Or maybe it's already possible?

I'd assume that you could replace the pref files with links to files in your dropbox folder. Of course store them in a safe place first before you try that!

I'll try that.

Would that work for windows too?

(on mac I'd use symbolic links, I have no idea how to do it on windows, we use both)

Thanks Fabrice!

Where are the brushes/shortcuts/panels etc located on mac and where on windows?

Is there a single folder containing everything? Are there issues if one machine uses TVPaint PRO and the other uses regular TVPaint?

What's "Select configuration path" found here: http://static.tvpaint.com/products/comparison.pdf" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; ?

It's not mentioned in the manual.

probably the ability to customize the configuration folder location in the StartUp panel.

Never noticed the misspelling before: Another should always be just one word.
