Could it be possible to automatically include the skin file when exporting and importing a layout?
Since the skin is of great importance in the layout and this is also included in the menu bar from version 7 onwards.
It would be useful if this could also be saved as a backup as soon as the layout is exported and imported.
I know that in the config the layout and skin are 2 different files, but I think it would be nice to be able to make a complete backup of the layout with one action.
The layout ini is one file, the skin.ini another one (from the same directory, of course).
When you look through the configuration you will see that individual *.ini files can also be exported alone (audio routing, remote control, database, logging, actions etc.) - although the configuration as a whole can be saved as a *zip file.
However, following your proposal, Torben must set up a dialog where you can decide to export layout.ini with or without skin.ini and, if together, he has to create a *. zip file for the combined layout export. 
I understand that the files are different, even they are in the same map.
Maybe another idea…
What about havinga backup/ reatore button in the main menu under the mAirlist button wich creates a conplete backup of the layout, skin file and perhaps events too (like all functions wich u can save in the main menu bar)?
Something like the complete backup option in the configuration app?
Just thinking out loud…
