  • Archives button: allows to edit the files where the application will be [Archive or publish JSup application|archived or published].
  • Includes button: allows to choose some libraries used by [JavaCode] (or [JSup Math code|Math code]) to be included in the [Archive or publish JSup application|published] application.
  • Domain codes: allow to access to the [JSup domains|Shared/User domain] [JSup code|code] (see [JSup Code script container#Domain])

  • [JSup Historian configuration|Historian configuration] fields define where (and how) the [JSup Historian] will store the its data.

Options

Look and feels options:

  • Show titlebar at runtime: If checked the [JSup main window] will be shown with the standard Windows [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Title_bar|title bar]. Do not check it if you want to show JSup on full screen (when the [JSup Application menu#New application|application resolution] and the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screen_resolution|screen resolution] are the same).
  • Ignore close command at runtime: tell to runtime [JSup main window] to ignore the Window standard system close command (Alt+F4 key shortcut, click on the X on the top-right corner of the window when the titlebar is displayed - see the option above). When this option is checked the only way to close the [JSup main window] is to use an [JSup Action animation|Action animation] you have to create in some (or all) [JSup graphic windows|window]. Use the shutdownServer() or shutdownClient() [JavaCode utility functions].
  • Need SHIFT for edit mode tooltips: check this if you are annoyed by the [JSup editor tooltip|JSup editor tooltips]; when checked the tooltip will be displayed only when you keep the Shift key pressed.
  • Need SHIFT for runtime tooltips: the same of the previous option, but it affects the runtime behaviour instead.


Exception report:
These options determine if Java and [JavaCode] exceptions will be reported in edit/runtime with the popup of the [JSup Output window|Output window].

Tag completion:
Normally the [JSup tag|tag] are completed in the [JSup Code multitab control|Code control] only with a [JSup tag|tag] name prefix.
With these options you can choose to have to completion by typing part of the [JSup tag|tag] description or the [IOHook|tag I/O hook] item ([JSup Drivers|driver] dependent).
