Questions / Re: Toolbar Button set save?

Thank You - pity no button set save but considering how drawn out creating a set is at least it can be saved and then I can tweak the other elements to suit the purpose of my numerous installs of mb.
With such a huge library I have 4 installs, a traditional install of mb contains my entire library spread across 4 harddrives of (omg) 18tb - many duplicated as flac & mp3 with cd, web, vinyl & all the deluxe, remastered reissues etc etc where available - I do own at least a vinyl or cd etc of the album but...a few slipped through the cracks, oopsey) with 3 portables having distinct flavours of music (1-Electronic / 2-Rock (guitar based) and everything else (from Jazz to Reggae to obscure world music) no doubt a 4th portable will evolve when I eventually invest in a true hifi rather than the arcam amp/power amp + B&W speakers entry level system I have atm as I begin to listen more to classical.
My point being each install of mb's layout is suited to the music more than it probably needs to be. I'm also not a playlist creator but enjoy being surprised by what shuffle offers and will open whichever install contains the mood of music I feel like listening to. I use my hard drives & folders as the template for my music library relying on diligently titling folders as well as spending more time than healthy id tagging everything into a cohesive system, thankfully tagscanners script ability combined with mb & their ability to grab everything from the net has been streamlined to suit my needs.
TL;DR sorry that was unnecessarily detailed. Thanks for confirming there is no way to save button sets alone but a method does exist to preserve them all be it not ideal. And re the screenshot statement again thanks for confirming that isn't a method to interchange panel layouts between installs but the import/export method is.
As you are aware its quite a learning curve to design your "perfect" muscbee layout, once achieved duplicating it across (as said) the multiples I use of musicbee is reassuring. Just as other users, I too have spent ungodly amount of hours learning & tweaking panel layouts. The customisation is awesome in the true sense of the word.
Thanks again !
