General Settings

Restore previously opened files at startup
When checked, this option tells TopStyle at startup to re-open the files that were open the last time TopStyle was closed.

Show welcome screen at startup
Uncheck this option to stop the TopStyle welcome screen from displaying.

Always confirm drag-and-drop operations in report and link view
When in link and report view, you can drag-and-drop documents to add or remove style sheet links. By default, these operations are always confirmed, but you can stop the confirmations by unchecking this option.

Scan for modified files whenever a site is opened
This option is used to perform the equivalent of an "update rebuild" whenever a site is opened. This checks the site for updated (modified) files, and if any are found the site data is updated. If you work with very large sites, it is recommended that you leave this setting disabled to prevent a long delay every time you open a site.

TopStyle should check whether it's the default CSS editor
When this is set, at startup TopStyle will check whether another application has been associated with CSS files, and if so ask you if you want to reset the association back to TopStyle.

CSS Document Extensions
Contains a list of file extensions (separated by semi-colons) that denote CSS documents. Modifying this list will change which files are shown in TopStyle's Open dialogs, and also which files are considered style sheets within sites.

HTML Document Extensions
Modifying this list will change change which files are considered HTML documents by features such as the link wizard and new site wizard.

HTML Editor
The first time TopStyle is run, it will attempt to detect several popular HTML tools and determine which one should be the default. The HTML editor is used when right-clicking on an HTML file in link and report views and selecting "Edit".

Proxy Settings
If you connect to the Internet through a proxy server, click this button to let TopStyle know your proxy configuration. TopStyle will use this information for all HTTP-related operations.

Reset Lists
Several of TopStyle's dialogs retain previously entered information. For example, the New Selector dialog "remembers" which classes have been entered. To clear this information, click the "Reset Lists" button, then place a checkmark next to each list you wish to reset.
