Hi
I am trying to find a way to store user preferences for my plugin.
These preferences are file paths, import options etc. so that the next time the user runs the plugin
all the choices he made the fist time he used the plugin stay the same.
Is there an API functionality which helps in this? Are there any guidlines how to do that? any user experience in the Forum about this issue.
Thanks in advance
Dimi

Thanks for the nice links,
the setting are not project specific so I will give the using settings of @peterjegan a try.
Hi
the C# Visual Studio User Settings suggested by @peterjegan worked fine.
Neverheless in my case its was even easier sinc I wanted user setting for Windows Forms entries. There is a way to associate user settings with a Windows Form component inside the Form Designer. This means even less code for reading/writing.

The only CAVEAT I found is that you have to call save before closing the Form otherwise the settings get lost.
Properties.Settings.Default.Save();
