KONA 3 Control Panel, Info Tab
Saving Your
Control Panel
Presets
After configuring the KONA 3 Control Panel via the Tabbed screens, you can then
save all your settings as a snapshot for later recall—called a preset. In this way, you
can organize the presets for all your typical tasks, saving time by not having to
manually reconfigure each time. To save a preset, simply go to “File -> Save
Preset...”. Be sure to give the preset a meaningful name. Thereafter the preset will be
available under the Control Panel “Presets” menu.
Who is Controlling
KONA 3?
If you are consistent in the workflows and formats you use between applications,
you generally won't be surprised by how your system operates. KONA 3 is very
flexible and most applications perform the necessary housekeeping so they work
correctly when they're active and when they're not. However, since several
applications using KONA 3 can be running at once, with one active, it can create
confusion when settings are different in each and you switch back and forth. To
prevent confusion, we recommend you run the KONA 3 Control Application and
have it visible somewhere on your Macintosh desktop. It will tell you, even when it's
not the “active” application, who has control of KONA 3 and what the current
format selections are.
For further understanding, read on and we’ll give you some further background on
KONA 3 control. The main issue you’ll generally want to know, is what application
has control of KONA 3’s Primary Format at the current moment.
