Manage Configurations Dialog
Access the Configurations Dialog from the Measurement View Config
menu "Manage" button.
What is a Configuration ?
A configuration is the choice, arrangement and setup of the
Readouts, as well as the instrument mode, and other miscellaneous
options.
They exist in three different levels:
The current Configuration is temporary, and will be lost if a
Saved Configuration is restored.
Managing Configurations
Presets, Export and Import
A - Long press this to restore all the
preset configurations name and state.
B - Export the currently chosen saved
configuration to a file. This will open the Android file selection
dialog where you can browse the storage on your Android device, or
select remote file using Google Drive or equivalent.
C - Import a configuration from a file. This
will open the Android file selection dialog where you can browse the
storage on your Android device, or select remote file using Google
Drive or equivalent.
Exporting and importing a configuration to a file, allows you to
exchange useful configurations with other ColorMeter users.
Saving and Restoring Dialog
D - The pull-down menu shows a list of saved
ColorMeter configurations. A configuration includes the Readout
arrangement and settings, as well as the Instrument mode and Display
calibration selection, and so is a convenient way switching
ColorMeter between different common tasks. The topmost item is
always the Original Default configuration, which can't be renamed,
re-ordered or changed. Below this are all the preset and user
created configurations.
The configuration that was last saved to or restored from will be
underlined in the menu list.
The Save and Restore buttons will be un-grayed if
the selected configuration is different to the current ColorMeter
configuration.
Items in Purple are preset
configurations. These can be re-ordered, changed, renamed or deleted
just like any other saved configuration, but will be restored to
their original name and state if the Restore Presets button
is long pressed.
E - To delete a saved configuration select it in
the menu and touch Delete.
F - To re-order the saved configurations, use the
Up and Down arrow buttons.
G - To create a new configuration and save the
current state to it, touch New and type a name for the
configuration and touch Done.
H - To rename a saved configuration, select it in
the menu & touch Rename.
I - To save the current configuration over an
existing configuration, select it in the menu and touch Save.
J - To restored a saved configuration to be the
current configuration, select it in the menu and touch Restore.
K - Touch the Done button to dismiss the
dialog.
