File>New>Blank File --- Preset Sizes ??? Jan 28, 2017 16:53:08 GMT

In E7 or E12, is there a way that I can program the new file dialogue such that I can select a pre-determined preset size of my own creating ?

There are three sizes of blank file that I use 99% of the time and the only way I have of knowing what to enter in the size boxes is to refer to my handwritten notes and enter it manually.

It sure would be handy if I could somehow program these sizes and be able to choose them from a drop-down menu.

Thanks for reading.

On a poverty-level Kentucky budget, a 24-exposure roll of film would have two Christmases and a summer vacation on it and we might have to wait another six months before being able to afford developing the film.
I still have trouble remembering that it doesn't cost anything to take thousands of pictures; it just almost seems impossible to be true.

BuckSkin,

Thank you; alas....., I was afraid that might be the case.

Suggestion:
Create your own library of your standard sizes and save them in a dedicated folder or in an album.
Not much longer than creating a new file from scratch.

Thanks; that is a great idea; it would be quicker to load a pre-made blank than to verify the measurements when making one from scratch.
