Auto populate prefs name in load/save dialogs #553

Closed lfrancis closed 2 years ago

lfrancis commented 2 years ago

Right now whenever I make a change I have to remember the name I assigned to the prefs file before I save it -- ideally this would be remembered between sessions so I wouldn't have to go digging through my docs folder to find it. Thanks!

That's intentional. The load/save dialogs are only there for occasional use when sharing preferences with others or moving to another machine. They're not intended to be used on a frequent basis.

Preferences for the current machine are automatically saved by Lightroom without you doing anything.

Oh, so we should think of this feature as an import/export feature rather than a save prefs feature? So when I make changes are they automatically saved when I exit my LR session?

Never mind, re-read your response and saw that you already clarified this -- thanks!
