Hey,
a simple question, how can I import a exported color preset???
I exported the wanted presets on an external usb-drive, but can´t import them on the new shows.

Were the presets exported from a grandMA3 show file?

Seems you need to refine your syntax
try checking the keyword reference of the manual,
(keywords: Import, Export, Drive, Library)

ok now i exported then right, thanks!!
When I now try to import the exported presets (from the selected drive 2) into an new showfile with the command:
Import Library "test.xml" at preset 4.1
the whole console crashes, but when I´m in the showfile I exported the presets, it works fine!

Can you please get in contact with the TechSupport or your local distributor?
Please provide them your show file, the exported preset xml file, the crash log and a description what they have to do to recreate the crash.

How did you exported your color preset properly ? I’m struggling to find the correct syntax.
-
The basic syntax for an export is:
Export Preset 4.1 "Yellow" Help Export Shows where.
If you wanted to export to an external USB you could modify that command to:
Drive X; Export Preset 4.1 thru 4.4 "Rainbow"
Where X is the drive number you want to save to. You can get that drive number by using List Drive.

When i'm typing in: import library "preset.xml" at preset 3.1 it says illegal object. what am i doing wrong? the right named preset is laying in the right place according to the manual. tried without .xml as well, same result.
Used this syntax: https://help2.malighting.com/P…word_import/en/1.1/import

take a closer look at the Import keyword description in the manual, and notice the commandline destination requirements before each syntax example.
Here's the full syntax required for your scenario, using the Import workflow from the manual:
ChangeDestination Preset 3
Import Library "preset.xml"
ChangeDestination Root
However, when you already know the exact filename and have a dedicated destination-object, you could consider using this faster direct syntax:
Import Preset 3.1 "preset.xml"
