I want to delete a template

Post by David_Fine »

I can save and load templates. No problem! But how do I delete a template? The manual tells me where to find the hidden folder on my Mac, but it's not there. I am showing all hidden folders and it really is not there at all. Can this really not be done from within the TVPaint program anyway?

Wow, this is the first time I have not had a response really quickly. Have I stumped the TVPaint forum?? :wink:

Sigh. I found it. It's confusingly expressed in the manual, but this is it: "Home Directory/Library/TVPaint Animation 10 (pro)/default/templates". That is where they are, so if anyone else needs to know, now you know!

Having found the folder, I neatened it up by moving templates I don't need to a sub folder, but there is this template which still comes up, but which is not in the folder. It's called .DS_Store. What is that and how do I get rid of it?

this is a hidden file that OS X automatically creates, it is e.g. for thumbnails:

It shouldn't show up in the template list since it isn't a template.
