    So far the only way to save a stencil position for later (after saving an reopening) is to save it in a preset.
    presets are a mess imho and too difficult to use for that purpose (how you you find your stencil in a huge list of presets?)
    I think there was another way before, or was it always presets ? because the other thing I remember is that when you did this, it created a huge file in the document folder for each stencil.

    Anyway, I think it would be good to be able to bring back a stencil in a given position, because they work well with the projector feature.
    Say you set projector from stencil and sculpt with that.
    When you save and reopen the file, all you have left is the projection.
    The stencil is useful in addition to the projector because you can sculpt detail directly with the stencil. (once you have found the shape by sculpting, you set the voxel resolution higher and then use the rectangle stroke mode with for example the airbrush to add surface detail to the basic shape).

    there are things you can do to help restore the stencil position of course, but it is never 100% precise because the scaling tool in the stencil "control panel" is/was not that precise.

    one solution that I think could be convenient (ask others) would be to store the stencil in saved view (CTRL+up)
     

    I think it would be nice to store the stencil and its settings in view preset (ctrl+up) if the stencil is opened while saving the view.
    also would be nice to save the view in a stencil preset file 

    it can be an option in settings or just a small dialog window asking every time you saving stencil or view 

  2. не совсем понятно что не так, но судя по скринам, косяк может быть через то, что в фотошопе есть маска на группе... в коуте масок в принципе нет...   
    примените и растрируйте маску в фотошопе на каждом слое из группы, потом сохраняйте и смотрите в коуте

    Can any staff tell me if 3DCoat can be installed on a second computer as long as only one is running at a time? I found an older thread that informed users it's ok but when I've done this recently I got a warning stating that it was registered on a different computer and that I must exit immediately

     

    there's chart on buy-page  https://3dcoat.com/buy/

    Thank you, i used migration master under the help menu which i found by accident and its restored everything.

    yep, 4.9 uses its own folder in user documents by default, so you have to move all your custom resources to the new location. Migration master can make this task really easy.
