Quick Settings not working

Hi, I'd like to save some settings to re-use on multiple galleries such as max image size, whether right click protection is enabled, clean setting, etc.

I make all necessary changes, and choose to save as a new quick setting. It saves and all seems fine.

If I then go and try to apply this setting to a new gallery, nothing happens. All the settings go gray and I can't change them, yet max image size is still original, right protection is not enabled, and the gallery is not clean. It's like the setting I saved isn't saved at all or is not applying. Any ideas?

    Andy, it turns out that I was confused by the user interface when doing this, but it actually is working.

    My confusion is this: Let's say I wanted to change the max size to XLarge in my gallery and I set that as a quick setting. Well, when I select my quick setting for a new gallery, all the adjustable items gray out so I can't select them. But the indicator will still remain on Original (and grayed out). I was confused thinking that it was "locking in" the size at Original and not actually changing it to XLarge.

    It would be helpful to have the visual feedback of what the settings will become right there when you select the quick setting. The expected behavior for a grayed out indicator is that it is locked in whatever position it is grayed out in.

    Without that visual feedback, it seems as if nothing is happening. Of course now that I saved it and went back into it I see it actually did work.
