Exporting Preferences

You can export your current preferences to an XML file. You can reimport this file later to restore your preferences, or share it with project collaborators so that you all use the same preferences.

NOTE When you export your preferences, only the preferences for the currently selected preference set are exported.

  1. Do one of the following to open the Keyboard Shortcuts dialog:

    • Windows:
      • In the top menu, select Edit > Preferences.
      • Press Ctrl + U.
    • macOS:
      • In the top menu, select Harmony Essentials > Preferences.
      • Press ⌘ + U.

  2. Near the top of the dialog, right of the Preference Set: drop-down, click on the Export... button.

    An export dialog appears.

  3. Browse to the location where you want to save your preference file.

  4. Type in the desired name for your preference file.

  5. Click on Save.

    Your current preference settings have been exported as an XML file, in the selected location with the file name you gave it.
