X-LR is about automatically setting film simulations in Lightroom, and it needs a clean interface that works for 99% of users and focusses on the really important job. I don’t plan to provide a user-friendly interface for other in-camera settings like dynamic range, sharpness etc in the core plugin, but Export Mode is to allow users to read these Fuji tags and values and apply their own Lightroom presets and slider values.
Please note that this is a bonus feature and is not supported. It's a hack meant for those users with the aptitude to figure out Fuji tags and presets. While I have tried to prevent problems, the downside of allowing you to hack the plugin is that you can probably generate unusual error messages or plugin crashes - if you try hard enough.
In Explorer or Finder, create a folder for your Expert Mode definition files. This folder can be anywhere you wish.
In the plugin, point to this folder in the Expert Mode section.
In the folder you need to create Expert Mode definition files:
For each Lightroom slider that you want to set, you need to create one line in the definition file. So let's say you want DR400 to set three Lightroom sliders, Exposure, Highlights and Shadows. Then you need three lines in the definition file.
Each line contains a minimum of four to a maximum six comma-separated parameters:
Any lines beginning with "--" are ignored by the code, so you can use this to enter comments.
The option "Save Exiftool data extracts in your Documents folder" generates text files which you can and examine in Notepad or TextEdit.
Alternatively, check the option to create keywords for "All MakerNote Info" and examine the keywords.
Save a Develop preset, right click it and choose to view it in Finder or Explorer, open it in Notepad or TextEdit.
Be careful with Exposure and other Basic panel sliders - "Exposure2012" is the PV2012 name.

Make sure you get the uuid, not the id.
nel sliders - "Exposure2012" is the PV2012 name.
X-LR combines adjustments in this order:
So for example, a preset applied by face detection (step 4) could contain a profile applied in step 1 or 2.
