I think that is expected behaviour. The important part of the release notes is that BBEdit uses the files in Dropbox IN PREFERENCE to the ones in ~/Library, which means that BBEdit will still use any files in ~/Library if they exist. This is probably why BBEdit recreates its hierarchy in ~/Library even if you're using Dropbox, so you can create local customizations and still use the settings in your Dropbox as the defaults. OTOH, Dropbox support seems hit or miss. For example, it seems that colour schemes (located in ~/Library/Application Support/BBEdit/Color Schemes) are ONLY read from ~/Library. If you try to install a colour scheme into the equivalent location in your Dropbox, it won't be recognized (well, at least for me they aren't). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "BBEdit Talk" discussion group on Google Groups.
