JayCee99 Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 Hi, the import of screensets doesn't work for me. When I want to import a screenset from another project it says Import screenset from 'untiteled' and the imported screensets don't correlate to the exported screensets. Please check. Perhaps it would be helpful to save the screensets to a configuration file. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msmcleod Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 1. You need to have both the source project and the destination project open 2. The destination project has to have "focus" before doing the import. If it's saying "Import screen set from Untitled", you've probably got the source project focussed instead. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayCee99 Posted February 21, 2021 Author Share Posted February 21, 2021 Thanks for your answer. So I have to say it works partly. The menu only shows "untitled", No matter what I do. In the source the synth rack is closed in the destination it is opened. The adjusted size of the Control View doesn't fit. The adjusted size of the Piano Roll View doesn't fit. Please test. Best regards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scook Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 Workspaces are not dependent on the project topology; screensets are. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayCee99 Posted February 23, 2021 Author Share Posted February 23, 2021 No. I don't use workspaces and I didn't knew they exist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that's the case, then why even have both instead of just one of them, since they do almost the same thing anyways? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do not do the same thing. To me they serve very different purposes, though both do have save and recall functionality. There are many threads/posts that address the differences. If someone else doesn't post links to those threads/posts, I'll see if I can compile a list. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Workspaces are for limiting/removing areas of functionality so you can focus on a particular workflow task. The idea being, that if the various modules / menu functions you don't need are hidden, it's easier to find the functions you do need. Workspaces are global settings which are completely project independent. It's up to you whether the workspace overrides the project layout or not. Screensets are project specific, and are for providing different layouts within that project. I tend to use my own project templates so that the screensets are at least similar between projects. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, they do thesame thing, except one does it on a local scale with less adjustability. How is that different from just switching workspaces?
