PSP 8 - Add Borders default settings

Post by terrypin »

I'm unable to get the Add Borders dialogue to retain the last settings I used. (Permanently.) Yet I don't see where the settings with which PSP 8 opens the dialogue are actually specified. Must be something obvious, but...

They are normally located in the Registry.

Thanks. At present those entries do correctly reflect my border settings, shown here:

And they survived closing and re-opening PSP 8 . So now I'll restart Win 10 and see if that's what has been losing them.

Colour has been changing to black, with symmetry enabled and zero in all four boxes.

Duh! Realised the cause as I dozed off last night. PSP is reliably retaining the last settings.

You may remember those scripts you developed for me a couple of years ago to edit walk elevation profiles, which I incorporated into a macro. The final step of that was a simple script I added to place a neat black border around the result. So when later using the Add Border tool again (manually, on that same 'finished walk project'), the settings were obviously still as I described.
