Export Preset with Custom User Channels Naming

[timothyp77201172]

Hey Substance Team,

I'm looking for a way to create an export preset that utilizes the custom user channel naming upon export. I looked and saw that the "document channels" export preset has this functionality but I am unsure how to harness this in my own custom export presets. Currently I have to either create a new export preset every time I change the user channels name or deal with  generic naming like RGBMask1 or BWMask2 etc. It would be great if the channel rename functionality was usable upon export.

Hello @timothyp77201172,

As mentioned in previous conversations,

Unfortunately, the Document channels preset cannot be used as an output template, therefore you can't reproduce the user channel naming.

I also hope we'll have more $ describing output maps in Painter, but we're not currently working on it.

Thanks for the response Cyril! Loving the new features in the latest version already saving a ton of time and helping pipeline. Fingers crossed for something like this in the future.
