Settings are the runtime attributes of the Project. Settings can be set in the Project palette or accessed and modified at runtime with the Runtime arguments.

  • Name: The name of the project is used to name the project's Cache folder. Projects with the same name will share the same cache folder.
  • Width: Max is the value used for the default window sizes - Min is only used by the Standard window growbox.
  • Height: Max is the value used for the default window sizes - Min is only used by the Standard window growbox.
  • Colors: Min is the fewest colors the project requires, and Max is the largest number of colors the project will use if they are available on the users machine.
  • Window: This is used set the initial project window type. It can be changed with the Set Window command. If Custom is selected here, then the Main document must contain a Set Window command to define the Shape and Drag regions.
