How to move QCAD Pro settings to another Mac

Post by loa » Mon Dec 12, 2022 7:52 pm

Hi!

I'm using QCAD Pro v.3.22.0 for a some years. It was on my old Macbook with Catalina.
Yesterday I've upgraded my comp to newer one (with Monterrey) and reinstalled QCAD from original package.

But unfortunately it is rather different as that one which I've 'tuned' for about five years.

I would like to get all preferences from old comp and transfer it to new one. I think it's possible but do not know where they 'live'.
Maybe it's even different directories since it is different version of Mac OS on these Macs.

Could you please advise what to grab such preferences and where to copy?

The location is documented at:

Of course, you'll want to copy the file over instead of deleting it.
