Update alerts and saving brush settings.

[Stephen27620187pe3e]

Hi

Have been using substance painter for a little while now, and 2 things I think should be done to give your users more control and information.

The first is that when an update is available i,m not getting a prompt to update like I would in other programs, this would be useful, as if I hadnt wanted to post the 2nd comment below, I would not have known about the update.

Secondly, whenever I save a file, Substance Painter is not currently saving my Alpha brush settings or the amounts I wish each channel to applied when painting, height for example, this would be super useful if for instance your modelling a lot of one thing, but using the same model in each, and only the alpha's that your painting are different, then saving a template file for lack of a better word, and having the same alpha settings already set, so you dont have to keep changing them, unless i,m missing something, in which case please tell me.

Anyway, that's all.

Thanks

Hello Stephen and thanks for the suggestion !

I'll definitely bring those to the team ! 

With that being said, for the Alpha brush setting, you can already save a brush preset. Right click anywhere in the brush window and create brush preset. Your brush with all the parameters will be added to your library and you'll still have the possibility to update it whenever you want.

I hope this will help you.

Have a nice day,
