Specifying Your JADE Installation Preferences
The sheets of the JADE Installation Preferences dialog enable you to maintain your JADE installation preferences. The preferences that you specify apply to all new users.
The preferences for the current users are not modified. For details about maintaining preferences for current users and details about the sheets that are common to administrative installation and to individual user preferences, see "Setting User Preferences", in Chapter 2 of the JADE Development Environment User's Guide.
Specify your installation preferences when you first install JADE and before any users sign on, or at any time for new users of the JADE release.
The preferences that you set (and then save) become the new default preferences for your installation of JADE.
To maintain your installation preferences
-
From the JADE sign-on dialog, select the Administration option button from the Select Options group box.
The JADE Installation Preferences dialog, shown in the following image, is then displayed.
The types of options are contained in sheets, with the Editor sheet displayed by default. (For details about using the Editor sheet, see "Maintaining the Editor Display" and "Maintaining Editor Options", in Chapter 2 of the JADE Development Environment User’s Guide.)
-
Select the type of options that you want to change, by clicking on the sheet name; for example, click Status List if you want to view or change these options.
-
Make the required option changes.
-
To save your changes, use the Save & Logoff command or the Save & Exit command from the File menu. For details, see "Saving Your Options and Logging Off" or "Saving Options and Exiting from the Installation Preferences Dialog", respectively, earlier in this chapter.
When you have selected and saved your JADE preferences, the specified preferences become the new JADE default preferences when you exit or log off from the JADE Installation Preferences dialog.
