PSP X6: Quick batch change of file locations

Post by DrGarry »

Hi All:
We all know that you can individually change or add to the file locations of brushes, palettes etc individually through PSP File > Preferences > File Locations. Then one by one.

This is very tedious to do for all 30 or so various folders listed in the dialog. Is there some PSP ini or dat file that I can edit very quickly to change all brushes, palettes etc locations?

Thanks for your time,
Garry

Yes, it could be possible to create simple software, even with directory right-click enhancement for quick add of new (or disable current) as current settings are stored in Windows registry (screenshot bellow).

But, be aware that PaintShop Pro do more - it automaticaly refresh content of IDE after you add or change those setting in program (so added Brushed, Frames, etc. are available immediately). So if it is done externaly it will require restart of PSP. :wink:
