Davinci Resolve - Fusion Page - Custom Toolbars

First time posting to the forum, I've had a search and couldn't find anything specific to this issue, so apologies if it has already been covered.

I've noticed something in Resolve v17.2.1 Build 12 (Windows 10 20H2), on the Fusion Page, it may be a bug, or it maybe me not understanding how to use the software correctly.

I can create a custom toolbar on the Fusion page (which is a great feature), and add / remove shortcuts as I need. I created my custom toolbar, remove some groups that I don't normally use, and added a custom effect. It appears to work fine.

But if I try to edit this custom toolbar, as soon as I restart Resolve the changes are lost and it reverts back to the custom toolbar that I originally created. I've tried removing named toolbar "Test 1" and then creating a new one (using the same name), but as soon as I reload Resolve it reverts back to the original custom toolbar I created...?

I've also tried going into the menu -> Workspace -> Layout Presets -> Update Preset but this doesn't appear to effect it.

I've tried it in Single Screen and Dual Screen modes, and get the same results.

I can create a new custom toolbar (calling it a new name) and then it saves, but I presume that this isn't how it's supposed to work?

I can't duplicate this in Studio 17.2.1 for Windows. My changes stick across restarts.

Thanks for responding, yeah, I'm at a loss as to why it doesn't save to be honest...

When I load Resolve, I have these two custom effects, in the toolbar.

I can add another effect to the toolbar.

But when I quit Resolve and restart it, the extra one disappears and it returns to the original version.

What effect are you trying to add? Is it native, or a plug-in?

They are all ones that I've created in Fusion and saved.

Ahh. I didn't test with those as I don't have any.

I wonder if that's the difference.

Thanks for trying, I'll see if its any different in v17.2.2 (I don't see anything in the notes, but I'll check).
