Hi Jim,

To be honest, I'm not sure. As far as I recall, I don't remember having to re-adjust the settings after a patch all that often. That being said, though, there might have been a couple of patches that did affect the display settings (especially when changes were made in the Display Options window). If that occurred, I would have just accepted it and simply reset my information without thinking about it (hence my inability to recall clearly!).

What I do as a safety precaution (regarding settings) is...

1. Open the window that has the settings I wish to save, use the snipping tool to clip the window's image, paste the image into a Word document. I save the documents in \bb\settings_noel. I've regularly done this for Audio and Midi setup over the years. Now I'll also do it for Display Options.

2. Under the Options menu, there's a "Save Preferences" selection. I keep updating my saved preferences with reverse dates so that they file from most recent backwards.

For example: the preference I just saved was 2016-01-20 backup.bbw and this sits on top of my last preference which was 2015-12-12.bbw

There have been a few times over the years when I've simply reloaded a preference backup file.

Hope this helps,
Noel
