Warning dialog number

The number of query results that you want the software to find before displaying a warning.

For example, if you set the warning dialog number to 50, the software displays a warning message box when the query results are greater than 50. You can continue running the query anyway by clicking OK on the message box.

The warning dialog number must be less than the maximum query limit.

Maximum query limit

The maximum number of query results you want the software to find.

For example, if you set the maximum query limit to 75, the software displays the first 75 matching objects encountered in the database.

• If objects are missing in the search results, set the maximum query limit to a higher number and then re-run the query, for example set the query limit to 3000.

• The Warning dialog number and Maximum query limit settings in the Change User Preferences dialog box also apply when you right-click an object and display relationships or relationship edges. Using these settings allows you to improve performance by limiting the number of objects returned during an expansion.

To Do List refresh interval in minutes

How often (in minutes) you want the software to update your To Do List.

Default UOM

The default unit of measurement (UoM) for the Properties window, and other data views. Example UoM sets delivered are Imperial and Metric.

Picklist item display

Select whether to display item names, descriptions, or both in pick lists.

Hyperlink destination

Specifies whether hyperlink target objects appear in a new window, in the tree view, or in the New Items window.

Nested reference file level

Limits how many levels of reference files are displayed by a master document, as the files may also reference other files. For example, if a master document was uploaded with four levels of reference files and the option is set to two, only the first two levels of reference files are displayed.

The option level set here is honored by the Web Client.

Format type for e-mail digest

The format for receiving e-mail digest messages. Choose from HTML and text.

E-mail digest duration in hours

The number of hours for which you want to include notifications in each e-mail digest message.

For example, if you set the e-mail digest duration to 4, you will receive one e-mail message every four hours that includes notification messages for the previous 4 hours.

Notification type

The type of notification you prefer:

• Notify - Notifications appear in a list view in the Desktop Client.

• E-mail - Notifications are sent through e-mail. You can use the e-mail digest functionality to group e-mail messages (by project, for example) as described above.

• E-mail and notify - Notifications are sent to the list view and through e-mail.

This option applies only to notifications sent for subscriptions.

Show all items on update references dialog

Displays reference relationships of all types in the Update Reference Relationships dialog box.

If this option is selected, the Update Reference Relationships dialog box displays the files with a reference relationship of Always Fixed as inactive. Files with the reference relationships (such as Always Update, Prompt Update, and Always Update Working Revisions) are displayed as active or inactive, depending on their reference relationships with the master document.

If this option is not selected, the Update Reference Relationships dialog box is displayed only for files that do not have an up-to-date reference relationship with the master document.

Group e-mail per project

Groups your e-mail messages, by the applicable project, in a digest message.

Show description in tree

Displays item descriptions in the tree view.

Show hidden files

Displays hidden files.

Force uppercase on toolbar

Forces the text into uppercase when entering text for searches in the Quick Find box on the toolbar.

Prints only the viewable area of a form when using the Print command on the form.

If you do not select this option, the entire contents of the form are printed when you click the Print command on the form.

Display internal object names

The default display name is the display name text as specified in an object definition.

This option can help system administrators find menus and methods by their internal names.

Display internal names for user interface

The default display name is the display name text as specified in an object definition.

This option can help system administrators find menus and methods by their internal names.

Refresh automatically after right click

Turns on automatic refresh for objects.

If enabled, when you right-click an object, the system checks against the server to make sure it is up-to-date before you can perform any actions on the object.

Auto refresh/display To Do List

Automatically refreshes your To Do List to be with new tasks assigned to you each time you complete a workflow action.

If enabled, the system checks against the server to make sure it is up-to-date with all workflow tasks before you can perform any further workflow actions.

If you experience a performance issue with a large To Do List loading, clear this option. When it is disabled, only the completed workflow step is refreshed in the To Do List when an action is completed.

Case sensitive quick find

Performs case sensitive searches in the Quick Find box on the toolbar.

By default, this option is not selected, and HxGN SDx ignores whether the text you type is in upper-case, lower-case, or mixed case.

Suppress multiple views of the same object when querying across multiple query configurations

Reduces the number of duplicate objects displayed in a query when querying across multiple configurations.
