Rules and setting from pcb layou exportable?

Hello,

if I create a new pcb layout, I am first asked if I want to
create an empty layout or use the rules and settings from
a previous project.

I looked through the export possibilities, but no export

are pads instead of vias. So when I switch off the ...

Re: File path unification (environment variables) for datasheets

Hello Alex,

Thank you for your consideration. For me, this would be a useful function and would also round off your concept of the environment variables in DipTrace.
If you manage to implement, from my side much appreciated.

Kind Regards,
John
