General

Use this sheet to configure general application options.

General

Specifies general application properties:

Property	Description
Restore project	If checked, the application automatically opens the previously opened project when you start the application.
Build localized items automatically before running them	If checked, the application builds localized items automatically if needed before launching them.
Check if there is an update available	If checked, the application checks if there is an update (i.e., a newer version) available.
Show initial options dialog when the application starts	If checked, the application shows the Initial options dialog if needed at the time when the application starts.
Show introduction dialog when the application starts	If checked, the application shows the Introduction dialog at the time when the application starts.
Show How to translate info after a new project has been created	If checked, How to translate dialog is shown after a new project has been created.
Output list of changed nodes after scanning	If checked, the application writes a list of changed nodes into the output log.
Enable diagnostic log	If checked, the application writes a diagnostic log into Soluling's data directory. For example `C:\Users\<username>\Documents\Soluling\Soluling.log`.
Create support packages	If checked, the application creates a support package if a compilation error happens.
DPI aware	If checked, the application is DPI aware. Check this you have use text scaling above 100% in you display.
Use original placeholders when copying to the clipboard	If checked, the application uses the original placeholder format when copying text to the clipboard. For example, `Hello %s!` instead of `Hello {0}!`
Clear undo history before scanning or building	If checked, the application clears the undo stack every time you either scan or build, meaning you cannot undo actions such as translations you did before the scan.

Default composite format string scan mode

Specifies the default value of how the placeholders of composite format strings are handled.

Value	Description	Example
Compact	Default. If checked Soluling scans composite format strings as an universal form that means the placeholders show as a platform independed format. Each placeholder is marked with a yellow box with the placeholder number.
Extended	If checked Soluling works as above but in addition of the placeholder number, the placeholders show the formatting specific items.
Plain text	If checked Soluling scans composite format strings as a plain text and does not convert them to the universal form. When this is used Soluling handles patterns as plain stings without checking placeholders.

Other

Max email length specifies the maximum mail size in characters that are used when the application sends emails. If this value is 0, it means there is no maximum length.

Import prompt limit specifies the number of import files that will trigger the select import language dialog to be shown.

User interface language

Specifies the user interface language of the application. The default language is English. By default, English is the only available language because we do not officially provide any language files. However, if you make such a file yourself (e.g. Soluling.de) and store it in the same directory as Soluling.exe, the language will appear here. If you change the language, the new language will be active next time you start the application.
