Deploy Toolbar-Settings

[bbag]

Hi community

We use the XChange Viewer Pro in our company.
I know that it is possible to export alle the settings in to a .dat-file.

But .. I didn't find the solution to deploy the toolbar-settings in our network, to all clients.
Is it possible to replace a setting-file in the user-profile oder to replace a key in the registry?
I couldn't find anything..

Thanks for your help.

Hello bbag,

The settings are indeed exported to a data file, but then when you import them back - they are stored in the registry.
So yes - you can e.g. call the already installed viewer's exe with "/usep <<path to settings file>>" parameter (you should need to do this just once per user) - and all the settings from the data file would be taken and updated in the registry for that user - including toolbar positioning.

Otherwise do check the "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Tracker Software\PDFViewer" entry in the registry - all the Viewer settings that differ from the default should be stored in there on a per user basis.

Best,
Stefan

Thank you Stefan.

I was looking in the wrong directory in the registry, however.
The setting should be in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Tracker Software\PDFViewer\View\Bars\0002 .. (file-toolbar)
Now im just looking for the symbol "Copy Full File Name" .. but only for this

Hello bbag,

Have you seen this KB article, on how you could change the shortcuts for the toolsin our Viewer, and also drag and drop commands to existing or new toolbars:
How do I create custom short cut keys for tool bar commands
