Update to 1.2 DELETES ALL PRESETS without any warning.



  • Hello,

    when I updated one month ago, I thought Ok, beta verion preset are gone, Ok can happen.
    But today morning on my other computer an update popup appeared and I just installed it, as usual.
    And boom all the preset for gradient, brushes, .... all what I have done the last 1,5 year just gone deleted.
    And than I realised I just installed 1.2 on this computer too.

    No warning in the release note you will delete everything what you saved in your presets. nothing just gone.
    Sorry if I missed something, but that's a reason to never use this application again.

    Really not good update process.
    😞

    @MajorTom Does not delete the presets. It creates a separate user directory for 1.2 keeping the 1.1 user directory.

    The presets can be copied manually from the user folder of 1.1 or exported form 1.1 and imported into 1.2



  • @VectorStyler ,
    thanks for the feedback, but I can only find this folder with the presets
    /Applications/VectorStyler.app/Contents/vector/data/presets
    is there another folder with prestes?
    If yes, could you please provide me the path?

    Thanks.
    MT.

    Yes, the local user presets are stored in ~/Library/Application Support/NumericPath/VectorStyler... folder
    You will find separate folders for 1.1 and 1.2
