When I upgrade from 2.0.1 to 2.2.1, all my customized shortcuts are lost.

Is there a way to retrieve them from the previous release?
I still have the 2.0.1 files from my user directory, c:\program files, and c:\documents and settings.

Customizing shortcuts is an awesome feature of thinking rock. Will keymaps be preserved in future upgrades?

Thanks,
Dwight

Yes in the future. Settings should not have been lost. We will be more careful for the next major release.

1) I did a a system compare before and after modifying KeyMap shortcuts, and saw what was being modified

2) So I then closed TR, and copied all the files in
C:\Documents and Settings\Divany\Application Data\.thinkingrock\tr-2.0.1\config\Shortcuts
C:\Documents and Settings\Divany\Application Data\.thinkingrock\tr-2.0.1\config\Keymaps\NetBeans

To

C:\Documents and Settings\Divany\Application Data\.thinkingrock\tr-2.2.1\config\Shortcuts
C:\Documents and Settings\Divany\Application Data\.thinkingrock\tr-2.2.1\config\Keymaps\NetBeans

3) Then when I launched TR 2.2.1 I now have all my Shortcuts again.

Since I use multiple machines, and may shortcuts, this makes it much easier for me to handle the upgrade. In fact I had tried the upgrade when it first came out and bailed once I noticed that I had to keep going back to the mouse, when things didn't happen.

As far as I can tell, I have the same problem with 3.0.3 upgrade.

Sorry we copied most of the settings between the version but forgot that one. I will add it to the list for the next version.

In 3.0.3, there are Export and Import buttons on the mapping screen. Hopefully you can use though to copy your mapping between platforms.
