Can I save the color configurations for a document class?

Post by vb.net »

I just spent 30 minutes configuring the color scheme of a document class. I accidentally hit "set default" and poof, the beautiful colors vanished and now I'm back to the original white background. Is it possible to save the color configuration before I accidentally erase it again?

Bummer. I'd suggest writing down the colour names or RGB values for all the items you change (foreground and background) so you always have a record in case you lose the settings again. And don't press Set Defaults next time.

If you look in the help under How To > Customize Settings > Transferring Between PC's it explains the colour settings are stored in the registry under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Helios\TextPad 5, so you can save the settings from there if you know how.
