[Feature] Remember tool settings between app restarts

Open lemonmojo opened this issue 4 years ago • 9 comments

Some tools offer settings that are currently not persisted and reset to their default values after restarting the app. For instance, all the beautify/minify tools offer a setting to control the number of spaces or tabs. But that setting resets to its default value after restarting the app.

Isn't this fixed?

Hello @lemonmojo,

Various tools settings are now persisted between app restarts, update your app to 1.7.0 now 😄

The user preferences file location is also available in the Preferences panel. I haven't got the time to test this but I hope you can symlink it to sync preferences between devices.

@trungdq88 Awesome! Already tested and working fine so far. Thx!

So the symlink sync works? That's great! 😄

@trungdq88 Oh sorry, wasn't clear about that, I just tested the persistence of the tool settings, not syncing.

Oh okay, it's fine. I'll give it a test later.

The user preferences file location is also available in the Preferences panel.

I can't find it:

@revolter It's in 1.7.1. If you are using DevUtils from App Store or Setapp, it will take a few more days for their approval 😅 Sorry about that.
