Setting General Preferences

By default, Cosmo Create saves changes to the open file every 2 minutes, and creates a backup file each time it is saved (see Saving Changes Automatically.) It's also set up to suppress all HTML warning and error messages and use Netscape as the HTML browser. Lastly, when you drag and drop files onto the page, Cosmo Create automatically makes a link to the selected text or image.

To change these default behaviors, follow these steps:

  1. Choose File > Preferences

  2. Click the General tab on the Preferences dialog tab deck.

  3. Specify which behaviors you want to change.

  4. Save the preference values, or cancel your changes.

Cosmo Create saves the preferences in the file .cosmocreate/cosmocreate-preferences in your home directory. See the cosmocreate(1) man page for more details.
