Hi all,

I seem to remember requesting this before, a method to backup execution parameters as plaintext. Wondering if that ever made its way into v25.12.

Occasionally I have seen input parameters getting wiped out and having to reconstruct them from scratch. If you look at the attached screenshots, you can appreciate why I need a backup method. It took three shots, not one to record them all.

I did a little digging before posting and found that 25.02 introduced "Execution Parameters Dialog Upgrades", including the ability to group execution profiles and use environment files. This carries into 25.12. If the environment file support covers command-line arguments and not just environment variables, that could be what I am looking for. Has anyone confirmed whether that is the case?

My current workaround , is making screenshots and asking an AI to read the screenshots for me. Less than ideal.

regards,
Finnian

In the execution parameters, look at the top right drop-down menu. Among other options, you have import, export parameters, including a auto export and auto import.
