Open skin, "Failed to open startup file", changes unsaved

Post by oceanclub »

Hope someone can help. Opening a skin in Flare 12, I get the following error:

"Failed to open startup file: An item with the same key has already been added."

Also, if I then make changes to the skin, those settings are not retained when saved.

This seems to be because I duplicated a skin file. What setting in the file defines the key so I can change it?

EDIT: I even tried creating a brand new skin file, editing it, pasting only elements not already in the skin into - ie, graphics, style settings, etc, then saving it and I still get the "same key" error.
