~getting ready to uninstall VMS4 because i upgraded to 8. is there anyway to save out all the crop presets i created over time before saying goodbye? (or import them into the new version)

Since I haven't used this utility, I am not sure if it does what you want: Sony Creative Software > Downloads > Utilities > Preset Manager.

~thanks for the lead! i downloaded the preset manager utility and installed it. but i have no idea how to access it or use it. a contents & index search in VMS8 yielded nothing and searching "preset manager" on this forum yielded nothing. anybody know about this?

thanks!

If an menu item wasn't added to the Start menu in Windows, I'd say dig into your 'Program Files' directory to try and find out where the utility was installed and run the executable directly.

Since it's an add-on utility it's probably not documented in the SVMS help. However, I would have expected some sort of a readme or release note with the installation.

Good luck.

~ok, i've got the Preset Manager shortcut on my desktop and can access it. it's got a help section but it is talking all about "preset packages" and "system presets" stuff. i'm not seeing any basic way to save crop settings as desired.
