Layout file #159

Closed mphanderson closed 1 year ago

mphanderson commented 1 year ago

In the macOS version, is there a file where the layouts are stored? Is it possible to copy this file/its contents and sent it to other users?

For teaching purposes it would be amazing to be able to distribute a set of customised layouts across a whole set of computers in a lab/organisation.

@mphanderson the layout files are stored in ~/.carta/config/layouts in JSON format. You may copy the layout files to others and keep them at their /.carta/config/layouts.

Thank you for your response @kswang1029. I've had a look in that ~/.carta directory (both for the 2.0.0 and beta 3.x release), and there is only a log/ subdirectory within. I do indeed have a custom layout saved (see attached)

@kswang1029 I think this is related to the issue @ajm-asiaa brought up. We only made the switch from localStorage post-2.0, and @ajm-asiaa built beta-3 without this change, IIRC.

Correct. The upcoming v3-stable release should work.

Great, thank you both!
