"Save Settings to Current Folder" greyed out.

The "Save Settings to Current Folder" in the Preferences pane is greyed out.  How do I active this?  Thanks :)

If we're talking about the same setting, it looks like you have to enable 'Load preferences from a custom folder' and choose a folder. That seems to enable 'Save changes to folder...' and 'Save Current Settings to Folder'.

I discovered the same yesterday: If you tick the "Load preferences from a custom folder" not only did it then enable the "Save changes to folder…" option but it also asked me if I wanted to copy the current local preferences to the folder.

It's one of those strange, counter-intuitive things about the interface: like for Colours having to use the Load pop-up in order to find the Export option to save your colour set!

The folder that you save changes to is the one you load them from. It's not meant to be a general way to export your settings, although I can see why that would be confusing. I'll think about how to clear that up...

Oh, as for the Export item being behind a Load popup, that's fixed in the beta version.
