Share Preferences (Data Fields + colors) between Users

[s.hu...@gmail.com]

Hi everybody,

I am new to GC. Spent a good time in setting up everything as I like – Data Fields, Workout Codes and its colors...

Now I already created a NEW USER for my gilrfriend. But only a few design prefs are aplied in her user area, such as "Appearance" colors for Plot Background and Performance Plot Background.

Is there a way to copy al the individual Data Fields I create especially with al the "Notes Keywords" and its color codes I chose? Because this is really a nasty work, setting up the colors so that they would NOT be to dazzling, as you only see the results after saving.

THNKS for helping!

Just found out that opening the Pref Panels of both users side by side is a possible workaround.

- Click on a Color to open  Choose Color Window
- click Add to Custom Color
- exit
- open Choose Color Window of the other User
- the added Custom Color appears there too

Wouldn't  like to have to do this for a third user anyway :-DD

Copy the files in the config/ folder under the athlete directory.
We could add a New Athlete As Copy... function but tbh its such a rare edge case its not worth the effort.

Mark, would the config files work across platforms out of curiosity?

Thanks,
Will

Yes absolutely. Platform specific config is stored in local formats e.g. registry on windows
You can thank Joern for the thoughtful design here !
