Specifies options to configure the software. The options are grouped by topic on tabs on the Tools > Options Dialog.
General
Enables the Undo command and the status bar. In addition to allowing you to toggle these features on and off, these options specify the number of actions you can cancel using the Undo command and set the time allowed before activating QuickPick. You can also define the locate zone for the software to find SmartSketch points and for the tabs displayed in the Workspace Explorer.
Colors
Selects the colors the software uses for the background, highlighted and selected objects, and handles.
Units of Measure
Determines the units of measure that appear in the readout and key in boxes of the software. Additionally, you can specify how precisely the software displays these units.
All the data (length, angle, volume, mass, and so forth) are stored with the unit of measure defined in the metadata. For example, the unit of measure for length is defined as meters in the metadata. If you set the length unit as ft on this tab, then the software displays the length readout as ft by default but stores the value as meters in the database.
ToolTips
Defines ToolTips for a selected object type. ToolTips are based on catalog labels, but they are saved to the session file. To create a label to use as a ToolTip, go to the Catalog task.
File Locations
Sets the default path to the folder where the software saves Workspace session files, Workspace Templates, Personal Report Templates, Report Output files, and Custom Documentation.
SmartSketch
Selects the standard SmartSketch relationship indicators you want the software to use.
Selected PG
Restricts the edits and propagation to objects in the selected permission group.
