How to use settings to store array of strings to read and edit while application is running

hello,

i have been learning c# past 2 weeks or so. trying write autocad plugin among other things, stores layer names 7 different lists.

most people have suggested using .settings files save names. having trouble working properties namespace.

the settings file have consists of 8 different settings. each array of strings. need to...

• check individual layer names against 8 lists see if present in of them
• if not present, ask user list should added , add it
• use lists create selection set in autocad based on object layers. (i have ask on autodesk forum last task)

i don't how access lists. have seen people this.mycolor = properties.settings.default.someline. see properties namespace in program.

my solution layerchanger. overall namespace solution. .settings file layerlists.settings, , there layerlist1.designer.cs, , settings1.cs. 1 of lists need access called layer0.

if want set list local variable like

string[] layer0 = this.properties.settings1.layer0

any appreciated. thank you.

if trying access settings file same project, try:

layerlists.default.layer;

if trying access project, make sure you've set access modifier "public" instead of "internal" @ top of designer in vs. add namespace in front of type or add using statement:

applicationnamespace.layerlists.default.layer;
