This is not the correct location for user installed filter sets.
Settings > App Data Directory > Show
(might not work in all Linux packages and desktops due to Linux fragmentation).
When I click on Settings > App Data Directory > Show nothing happens. This is a fresh extract of the new version 23.07.29 (tar).
The only “filter-sets” folder I found is the one I mentioned in my previous post.
If that is not correct, should I create it under /home/BossyBear/Shotcut or something local so that new versions don’t delete it?
I’m using LinuxMint 21, the flatpak version of shotcut. My storage location for filter sets is exactly where I indicated in the description. Since there are so many operating systems and distributions, I have indicated the easiest way to find the desired directory.
If for some reason this does not work, you can do this: Open shotcut, create your own set of filters with a convenient name. The file with a set of filters will have the same name as you called it when you created it in shotcut. Perform a search on the computer for the file name with the name of the filter. The directory that is found through such a search will most likely be correct.
I finally tried your transition pack @dimadjdocent
Great job!
But maybe you should mention in your description that it’s possible to use any of the Sets on a single transition (not in a slideshow).
Create a 0,5 second transition between 2 clips.
Make sure the transition clip is selected and go to the Properties panel.
Choose the Cut type of transition.
Set Position to 50%
Go to the Filters panel and click on the + button.
In the Sets category, choose any of the 9 Filter Sets from the pack.
