Presets not saved - CHS
Grayp:
I am new to CHS but am having trouble saving any presets for text formatting.
Maybe I'm misunderstanding the instructions, but as far as I can tell I'm following the procedure to save some presets. The preset files are being created in the PresetViews file, but the presets don't appear in the Clips Menu (single left click on system tray icon).
And no dropdown list is created for the 'Modify Format/Case' button in the Memo window (double left click on system tray icon).
My laptop is on a server domain and therefore 'My Documents' is a redirected folder - I don't know whether that bears on it. But the preset files are being created. I'm on Windows 7.
Please help me!
Thank you.

Welcome to the forum, Grayp :up:
It sounds like you are doing everything right -- if the preset files are being created, they should show up in the menu and in the Modify Format/Case drop down button.

I am wondering if this is causing the issue.. Let me check the code and see what I see -- I might send you a debug version that will tell us where it is looking for the preset files, which might tell us what's wrong.
It has to be a simple problem, so i'm sure we can get it fixed asap.

Question:
Is the preset menu (and Modify Format/Case dropdown) completely empty? Or does it show some predefined presets just not your newly saved ones?

Sounds good - thank you.
I have only had CHS installed for a few days and it gave errors quite a few times regarding the attached screenshots. But I've persevered with it, uninstalling and reinstalling a few times. The main thing that seemed to resolve it was manually creating the folders in the relevant directories (it wasn't creating some of them itself - I also had the same problem with Screenshot Captor).

The Modify Format/Case dropdown is completely empty (as default?).
The preset menu just contains a blank No1 and the default No2 (I think those two were there as the original defaults?). Screenshot attached.
