Tx Victoria, I missed that you could go up/down on settings. I'll have a go and see how handy that is in reality.
My settings tend to drift a bit: e.g. I did a lot of panoramas during my holidays, I like to stack my panoramas on top of their original pictures, so i put some stacks controls in the contour settings. Now these are less useful so i might change them again.
Baxter: for the modules, I use mostly the grid view (G) and develop (D). I normaly use the keyboard to switch, but also programmed a button to alternately press G and D. Disadvantage is that sometimes you first go to the same mode you're in. I also use a single button to open and close the view focus point plugin. To select that, I programmed a little macro. (First a sequence in one group of keystrokes E, ALT+L, U, F), then a second group ALT+F4 to close the window). The ability to add several keystrokes to one button is quite useful.
