9.1 Configuring the Behavior of the Program

The Options window accessed through Tools menu allows to configure the program's behavior for three different
events:
Ask About Tracklogs/Routes Union
This is a check box that determines the behavior of the program when using the Pencil tool to draw a Tracklog or
Route that finishes at another Tracklog or Route. There will be two situations:
Enabled : The program will always ask whether to connect the two Tracklogs or Routes every time you draw a
segment that finishes at another Tracklog or Route.
Disabled : The program connects the Tracklogs or Routes without asking the User.
Ask about Wpt/Tracklog deletion
This check box controls the behavior of the program when you select several elements on the screen and try to
delete them. Two situations can exist:
Enabled : The program always asks which items to delete. You can delete only the Waypoints, or only Tracklogs
or Routes, or delete all selected data. This is a true selective deletion option.
Disabled : The program deletes all selected items without asking.
Increase Line Width on Map
This option will only be available if the button
When inserting a digitized map into the background of the screen, a lot of times it is necessary to increase the line
width of Tracklogs and Routes to facilitate a better visualization. The User can opt to leave this option:
Enabled: In this case, every time that you insert a map image in the background of the screen, the program will
automatically increase the line width of Tracklogs and Routes. The User must be aware because the increase of
the Routes line width will imply the change of the dotted line for the continuous pattern of the line.
Disabled: the program won't increase line width.
