Preferences -> Shortcuts : not saved

[PolDavril]

Hi,

I change the keyboard shortcuts in Preferences -> Shortcuts.
When Daslight exits, these shortcuts are not saved with the global parameters.
Indeed, the "_global.ini" file does not contain the shortcuts values.
When running Daslight again, the shortcuts don't come back.

On the other hand, it seems that the shortcuts are saved within the project file itself, because they come back when a project is opened.

It would be more convenient to have the shortcuts saved in a global way, in order to have them automatically initialized at startup and not to enter them again for each new project.

I guess it's the same issue for MIDI and DMX.

Hi

Yes right now, a lot of things are saved in the show file because we though it would be better: your preferences would move with your project, no need to move your full daslight 4 setup as well...

I actually started to duplicate some of the settings: keep it in the software preferences AND in the show file for some things like MIDI preferences: it allows to have a basic configuration which stays with the install and the show own configuration would replace it... We may extend this/enhance it for future version, I'll put it in our ideas list

Yes, a default set of settings (in Preferences) and a custom set saved with the project are the best solutions.

Another idea : a new boolean option like "Use project preferences ?" could also be convenient to decide to use the custom settings from the project or to override them with the general defaults.
It's even more versatile.

Thanks !
