OFX Favorites not saving

PostFri Feb 28, 2020 7:02 am

I have a minor but annoying issue in R16.1.2. Resolve refuses to remember the OFX that I choose as favorites. I choose them and they appear for a while in the favorites list, but then at some point (often during the same session) I go to the OFX tab and my favorites are empty again. Perhaps it is a permissions issue? Anyone have an idea where the OFX favorites info is stored (on Mac)? Thanks!

Is no one else experiencing this? The bug persists in version16.2.

I've had this problem as well.

Seems to be working now in 16.2.

Yes, seems to be fixed for me in 16.2.1. Thanks BlackMagic! With this fixed, the FX button on the Mini Panel is much more useful!

[EDIT: it wasn't actually fixed in 16.2.1]

Maybe just talking to myself here, but in case anyone else encounters this: OFX favorites are saved with workspace layout presets. Mine kept disappearing because I had created several workspace presets for various things, and whenever I loaded one, it erased my OFX favorites. Finally figured it out and updated my presets to have my preferred OFX favorites.
