feature request Set meters options

[IgoRr]

Hi!

In each project, every time you have to re-configure the options for displaying meters in three places - in the general window, in the mixing console and in the "inspector". This is rather long and inconvenient, is it possible to add a section to the "general settings" of the Cakewalk where you can select these options in advance for all future new projects?

Thanks in advance!

Having all the setting options available is nice.  I can understand where someone might prefer settings different than the program default settings so a way to select different default settings in Preferences is a good idea as long as the ability to adjust as needed is retained.

For now create a project template with the meters setup as needed.

Use this template for all future projects.

It is possible to designate the template as the default for new projects.

When saving the project template make sure not to overwrite any of the templated suppled with Cakewalk.

Or create a custom path for project templates and change the path in preferences. This is what I do. 

Either providing a unique name or custom path will prevent future updates from overwriting the custom template.

Yes, I still do that, but it would be very nice to be able to save group settings "by default", I think.
