SoundForge scripts no longer working with user-made presets.

I reported this problem more than a year ago, so... bumping:

I have scripts which work correctly in SoundForge 13, but in versions 16 and 17 do not. The problem is that the scripts can no longer use user-made presets. My test case is a script which applied a graphic fade using a preset I made. The script works find if I give it one of the factory preset names, but it does not work if I give it one of my preset names.

Since user presets are stored differently from factory presets (user presets are stored in the Registry, factory presets somewhere else), there is apparently a fault in the code which consults the Registry to obtain the user preset.

Please elevate this bug, thank you.

@Kurt-Larson

These are user to user forums, not Magix support, so no-one here can elevate this bug, sorry.

Please do as @SP. writes and create a Support ticket.

Creating a support ticket is a bit confusing, below is a link to a comment with my instructions, which may be easier to find and clearer than Magix's.
