Yes, I think all prefs are somehow gone. At least everything that is writes to a file seems to be commented. I didn't remove those things yet, as they seemed to big and I didn't understand well how they'd work or how I would test (I lack the knowledge of how the UI should operate but only see what is there now) > > Scott > > On 10/1/23, Robert Middleton <rmiddle...@apache.org> wrote: >> I would say the saving/loading of settings is probably the main thing to >> fix - if I remember correctly, it kinda works at the moment.
