To correctly load .vrlst layout in the VRayLister, follow these steps:
Fancy Bullets
type
circle
Create a layout preset in the VRayLister by dragging columns and/or tweaking the Display options.
Close the VRayLister. Thus, V-Ray saves the layout locally.
The layout is stored in the vraylisteruser.vrlst file, which is located in: C:\Users\%user%\AppData\Local\Autodesk\3dsMax\20## - 64bit\ENU\en-US\plugcfg where ## stands for the version of 3ds Max used.
Now, every time you open a new scene, the .vrlst file in the ENU folder will be loaded automatically.
When creating the layout, you can also store it in a location or network of your choice before closing the VRayLister from Options button > Save layout. Thus, you have a backup file of the layout.
You can save as many layout presets as you want.
To load another .vrslt layout:
Reopen the VRayLister, and then load the custom layout from the Options button > Load layout.
Close the VRayLister.
Тhe newly loaded layout will override the current one in the vraylisteruser.vrlst file.
