The Limecraft Panel acts as a seamless bridge between Adobe Premiere Pro and your Limecraft Workspace, allowing you to manage and transfer media directly from your editing tool. To maintain consistency across team members and workflows, many settings related to the Limecraft Panel can be centrally managed in the Limecraft Workspace Settings.


This guide explains how to manage encoding presets for exporting sequences, set the default download option, and configure the default subtitle file settings from the Limecraft Workspace Settings.


To manage these settings, you need to be an admin to access the Limecraft Workspace Settings that are discussed in this article.
