but *which* darktablerc indicates "1"? the *original* darktablerc which is part of the package install and not local to *your* user account comes with "1" as default. when you make changes to your darktable configuration, they are saved in the darktablerc *local* to your <user-name>. and it is not the same as the original version provided on package installation. as I said, the linux "user" version is at ~/.config/darktable/darktablerc -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/piwigo paka @ IRCnet freenode ____________________________________________________________________________ darktable user mailing list to unsubscribe send a mail to [email protected]
