Way to make Curves open with a saved Preset already loaded?

Post by klj »

How do I save a Curves Preset Default?
I can save presets. But I would like to save a Default that is selected in the curve editor window. There is a menu selection <Default>. How do I use it?


Mac OS 12.1
XnView 1.4.1

Thanks

The small blue floppy disk icon just to the right of the Presets selection dropdown? :D

Yes, the disk icon lets me save a setting. But how do I make the setting the Default?

I see the problem: possibly 'Default' is the straight line setting with which the window opens, which can't be changed, and there is currently no way to make Curves open with a saved personal option already loaded??

Pierre?

Simply making the currently set Profile persistent would provide a solution, wouldn't it?

The "persistent" profile would work great!

1.5 years later - this seem to be not integrated now, right? Or did I miss it?
