On your windows computer go to Help->open settings folder. Copy everything in there to a thumb drive. Delete the license file from the Windows machine. On the Linux computer go to Help->open settings folder. Close SheetCam then paste the files from the thumb drive to the settings folder.

If the setting folder doesn't open run a file mamager and go to:
~/.SheetCamTNG-dev

Les,
On the Linux version, Help -> Open Settings Folder doesn't exist.
Clicking on ~/.SheetCamTNG-dev does nothing.

I did get my license and tool sets loaded from Windows to Linux, but there sure are lots of preferences I'm not sure how to move over.
