Bug SimTools Beta Fix #6 - Won't save presets

    My Motion Simulator:
    3DOF
    The 'Presets' dropdown won't stick - I created new presets to remove some of the output axis that are actuators I don't currently own - I only have 3 actuators so only need Axis1a, Axis2a and Axis3a.
    Seems the creation of a preset works, but when I choose it from the drop-down it always just defaults to the '-' default preset?
    Thinking this was just a software quirk, I clicked the preset drop-down arrow, then used my keyboard down arrow to highlight the new preset I created, then just click anywhere in the unused space of the Game Engine window, and now I can see the preset I created. If I mouse click on my created preset or hit enter on my keybord, it just goes back to the '-' default preset, so this workaround is the only way to see my created preset.
    Sounds good, right?
    Well, after I remove the axis I don't have, then click save, it seems that nothing has actually been saved.
    This happens for all presets, even the default.
    Here's a short video showing what happens:

    It loads the file and drops back to the "-", this is how it works.
    The save button on the form below does not update the preset, the presets stays the same as the time is was created.
    Hope that makes sense.
    Take care,
