Well, the Windows version equivalents (OptionsExport/OptionsImport) are meant for going between any installs, either on the same machine or on others… There is no ResetOptions command on the Windows side AFAIK…
my main concern is if it’s exporting the entire .plist, whether or not it’s going to have a negative impact when importing to a different computer.
i’m pretty sure things like window size or toolbar placement are stored in the .plist so if i transfer to a computer with a smaller display, will some of UI elements fall outside of the screen size and end up ‘lost’ outside of the screen. ?
i don’t really have much time lately for experimenting with or fixing something like this but i suppose i could make a backup of the .plists in case something goes wrong when attempting to sync the installs.
You get to choose what you want to import with the ImportPreferences command. It does not import the entire .plist. There is no option for importing window locations.
(i obviously haven’t ran the commands yet as i wasn’t sure what to expect… the ability to choose what’s being imported sounds great. i’ll do it tonight. )
