Allow workspaces to be easily imported/exported/synced without the need to manually copy/paste workspace.xml files from the preferences folder every time a new machine or install is used.

Almost 2020 and I still can't share my workspace with the computers that I use.

Probably one of the most crucial features I'd like/need to have in AE right now

The sync settings don't work properly and even if they did, I'd like to be able to share my workspace settings with other people and be able to use them in different machine/accounts without all that trouble

I think i made thoses workspace more than 30 times only in after effects.... with lot of panels it really takes a lot of time....

And the sync settings never worked for me since it has been released...

YES.. I propose making the files hand-off portable (think thumb drive), but also--please let them sync through the cloud. I just clean installed my system and was shocked they didn't sync with all the other settings that DID. Seems to me you already encourage this sort of expectation from users and leaving Workspaces out of the mix doesn't make a whole lot of sense.

YESSSSSSS. workspaces cause me so much grief. that time when you accidentally pull a docked tab off to a floating window and then the whole thing resizes...groan. Lockable worskpaces would resolve that completely, and its just seems so natural to make workspaces a sync item. even if you have to resize it all to fit a different moni, at least the layout could persist.

Not only syncing through CC, but having portable Workspace files that I could use while I'm working on clients' machines would be great.
