Abram K-J Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 I know it's been requested before, but I couldn't find the corresponding threads in the forums, so here's a new one. The amount of Preferences one can customize in Accordance is nothing short of awesome--far more than just about any other app I use. I really appreciate this. It would be fantastic (not just for me--thinking of all users) to have an option (if it's possible!) to search for what it is within Preferences you want--i.e., type in "Limit text width" and it takes you there, much as the "System Preferences" in Mac has a search option so you don't have to remember which sub-section of Preferences you need. I'm guessing this is difficult to program or we might be using it already, but figured I'd start another thread and see what kind of support there might be for this... thanks for considering! 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michel Gilbert Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 Hi, I would rather Acc be programmed to remember my Preferences, and apply them as I install on different machines/platforms, or when I update to a new version number.

Michel Gilbert Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 . . . and the Preferences could be listed in the Help files, with hyperlinks to their menus in Acc - just search, click, and apply 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michel Gilbert Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 Hi, In the meantime, and even if searching is implemented, it would be nice if the Preferences pane could be enlarged to full screen. Then it would be easier to find what one is looking for, especially on HD screens. Regards, Michel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricC Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 The ability to export preferences and then import them on a different machine would be great. Automatic backups of all user-defined settings would be great, too. When Accordance gets the hiccups one of the things support sometimes asks you to do is open in Safe Mode (holding the Option key on Mac when launching) and then delete General Preferences (see Screenshot). I really hesitate to do that. In the last case, what I did was to make a screenshot of all the various Preferences panes and same them as a backup. Then when Accordance was working right, I had to go back and manually reset all the preferences to what I had had before. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michel Gilbert Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 (edited) With all of the new BW users, I change mind my mind. I agree with Abram. Edited June 9, 2018 by Michel Gilbert 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ιακοβ Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 I never know where anything is inside preferences. This seems like a good idea. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
