Exporting

Use the Export... button to save your settings as a new code convention.

Just select the profiles that should be exported in the list, and press the Export... button to choose a file to export to. You may select multiple profiles that should be exported into just one file.

Please note that if a nested profile is selected, by default all parent and child profiles will be exported as well. If you really only want to export the profiles that have been selected in the list, hold down the Ctrl key when pressing the Export... button.

In order to be able to share settings across different systems and users, file paths should be stored relative to make the code convention portable. Jalopy therefore exports all file paths below its settings directory as relative file paths. History, backup and message log directories are by default set to a paths below the Jalopy settings directory and are therefore correctly handled by the export. If you should have specified custom file paths here, you should make sure that these paths are checked and adjusted when necessary, after a code convention has been imported!

Please note that exporting only covers the actual code convention settings. All other profile data (history, backup, logs, reports) is ignored. If you really need to share all profiles data, just copy the whole settings directory or selected profile folders over.
