3 Profile Toolbar
3.1 Overview ¶
The profile toolbar sits above the profile list and contains all actions for managing processing profiles, plus a profile search on the right.
3.2 New profile… ¶
Creates a new profile and directly opens the Profile settings window (see chapter 8). The print presets stored in the program options are applied to the new profile (see chapter 40.10).
3.3 Edit… ¶
Opens the profile settings for the selected profile. Alternatively, simply double-click the entry in the profile list.
3.4 Duplicate ¶
Creates a copy of the selected profile - handy when another profile should differ in only a few settings. The copy starts deactivated: the original and the copy monitor the same folders and would otherwise immediately process everything twice. Activate the copy once you have adjusted it.
3.5 Catch up… ¶
Opens the catch-up processing dialog for the selected profiles. Use it to process files that were already in the monitored folders before the profile was created, or that have not been processed for other reasons (see chapter 60.2).
3.6 Activate / Deactivate ¶
Activates or deactivates the selected profiles (multi-selection supported). Only active profiles process files. The active state can also be toggled directly via the checkbox in the Active column of the profile list.
3.7 Remove ¶
Removes the selected profiles (multi-selection supported). The monitored folders and already processed files remain untouched, of course.
Note: A confirmation prompt appears before removal. In addition, via the automatic backups (see chapter 40.9) or Menu → More → Restore application data…, an accidentally removed profile can be recovered from a backup.
3.8 “Profiles” dropdown ¶
The Profiles dropdown bundles bulk actions and profile exchange:
| Entry |
Function |
| Catch up all profiles… |
Catch-up processing for all profiles (see chapter 60.2) |
| Activate all |
Activates all displayed profiles |
| Deactivate all |
Deactivates all displayed profiles |
| Remove all |
Removes all displayed profiles after a confirmation prompt |
| Import profiles… |
Imports profiles from a previously exported JSON file (see chapter 60.4) |
| Export profiles… |
Exports all profiles to a JSON file (see chapter 60.4) |
Tip: To export a single profile, use the context menu of its entry in the profile list (Export profile…).
Note: If the profile search is active with Show exclusively (see section 3.9), the bulk actions activate/deactivate/remove only affect the displayed (filtered) profiles - hidden profiles remain unchanged.
3.9 Profile search ¶
The search box on the right filters the profile list live. It searches the profiles’ name, comment, and monitored folders.
3.9.1 Show matches only ¶
When enabled, only the profiles matching the search term are shown; all others are hidden.
3.9.2 Highlight ¶
When enabled, all profiles remain visible, but all matching rows are selected (multi-selection).
Tip: Use Highlight to activate, deactivate, or catch up all profiles sharing a common name part in one go.
The state of both checkboxes persists across program restarts.
3.10 Editing lock with a centrally managed profile file ¶
If a centrally managed profile file is used without editing permission (see chapter 40.5), all profile-changing actions of the toolbar are locked; as an indicator, a lock symbol labeled “Centrally managed profiles” appears to the left of the profile search. The program then picks up changes to the central file automatically.
