Share Settings and layouts

[Jason]

Hello,

 

In our office we have 3 different users and work with 2 or 3 others who come into the office from time to time. It would be nice to have all the settings and layouts the same - at least to start with. Later, when a user is comfortable with the system they could tweak it however they want. But, for new users, it would be nice to be able to give them the DOOR default settings and layout.

 

By layout I mean the way the Library Window and the Resources Palette are ordered. So if we've customized the Reference Tools by adding new folders and arranging the books in a particular order we could copy that and share it with all the other users. I'd like to avoid having to go to each computer and setting them up manually every time.

 

By settings I mean the settings in the Preferences.

 

Is there a way to do this?

 

Thanks,

Jason

You can set everything up on one computer and then transfer the user: Library: Preferences: Accordance Preferences folder to the other users. This contains all the settings and arrangements. Files you save are in user: Documents: Accordance Files.
