Hi there,
as i understand it Studio Defaultprefs always override usersettings, which is fine to a certain extent ;)
We want to define a basic submission preset via Studio Default Prefs, like gamma settings reservations etc (works fine btw!). Problem is i would like to let the users to define the priority cluster themselves and save their preset. So basically they get a basic studio preset, set the cluster to the project they are working on and save the preset so they don't have to edit the line everytime.
I tried to delete the 'cluster' line from the studiodefaultpreset file, edited the line in the submission dialog, pressed "set defaults" but the next time i open the submission dialog it will override user settings anyway with ''. Maybe i'm doing something wrong?
Is there a way to exclude a certain setting (like clusters) from being overridden by the studioprefs?
cheers,
mikko

Hi Mikko.
In the GUI, there are "Studio Defaults" and "Studio Preferences". The former will create a base upon which users can set their own presets. The latter sets a mandate upon which the user has no "default" control.
If you want users to be able to override the studio-wide defaults, be sure to choose "Studio Defaults" instead of "Studio Preferences" when they choose the path to the central configuration file.
