# Copy Treadle Settings From a Prior Design

At the bottom of the Load WIF screen, an option appears called "Copy Treadle Settings".  

The default is "N"for No.

This is a useful feature if you are preparing to load a new WIF that you want to use the same treadle mappings and settings that you had set up for a prior WIF.  &#x20;

Be sure to first have the prior WIF loaded, then go into Load WIF and select your new WIF file on the SD Card.  Before pressing the green Load button, change the "N" on this option to a "Y" for yes.  Any mappings, treadle status and color change alert options will be automatically copied to your newly loaded WIF.
