Project Options

The Project Options area of the Options dialog enables the user to define global project settings. Initially, a selection of functions will appear on the right side of the dialog. The user can also select functions in the column on the left side of the dialog. Once a function is selected, the entry fields for that function appear on the right side of the dialog.

Note: Project Options functions are only available when a project name is selected in the Project Manager or when a page in the desired project is open.
