Re: [Avid-L2] Re: User Settings

Different than the way I usually do it, which is the old way I guess. At the risk of earning an RTFM myself, does this import the entire user setting and create it as a separate setting? My impression was that he needed to selectively copy and add a few settings into his own profile.

From the Avid manual that came with your sytem:

Manipulating Settings by Importing User Profiles or Copying Files
Manually
Experienced users are accustomed to going to the desktop and moving
settings and project files around manually, but there is an easier and
more reliable way of doing this. The User Profile menu, in the
Settings tab of the Project window, has two items: Create User
Profile, and Import User or User Profile. If you have another user's
settings on your system or on a storage medium that you would like to
use, select User Profile Menu > Import User or User Profile. This
option allows you to navigate to the user folder, select it, and
establish it as another user profile, accessible from the same menu.
It brings all the requisite files and puts them in the right place.

Thank you Shirly for your help again,
