        • found URLs.
      • page titles
        • warn about long titles.

11TITLE           Editor configurations
12
13OCCURRENCE      ARB_EDIT4/File/... configuration
14
15DESCRIPTION     Editor configurations define
16
17                 * which species, groups and SAI will be shown inside the editor,
18                 * whether any of these is placed in the top area (always visible) or bottom area (scrollable) and
19                 * which groups are folded (in the editor).
20
21                Each configuration has a unique name and is part of the database,
22                i.e. to save (changed) configurations, save your database.
23
24                Such configurations can be generated in three ways:
25
26                 * using 'File/Save configuration as' in ARB_EDIT4
27                 * when starting ARB_EDIT4 as described as 'Standard' or 'Plus relatives' in LINK{arb_edit4.hlp} a
28                   configuration named "default_configuration" will be automatically created or overwritten
29                   (see LINK{ad_extended.hlp} for default SAI placement).
30                 * using the configuration manager (see LINK{species_configs.hlp})
31
32                Using the first method gives you complete control over what exactly is stored in
33                the configuration (see LINK{e4_mode.hlp}).
34                The other two methods will
35                 * always add all SAIs associated with the selected alignment (and fold them as defined; see LINK{ad_extended.hlp})
36                 * always use the folding of the currently displayed tree
37
38                Description of configuration entries in ARB_EDIT4 "File" menu:
39
40                  * Save configuration
41
42                    Saves any changes made to the currently loaded configuration.
43                    Note that it does not make much sense to save the "default_configuration" as it
44                    may be overwritten when the editor is started next time.
45
46                  * Save configuration as ...
47
48                    Save the current state of the editor as named configuration for future editor restarts.
49
50                  * Load configuration
51
52                    Switches to a previously stored configuration.
53
54                    Similar to closing the editor and restarting it using a named configuration.
55
56                  * Reload configuration
57
58                    Reloads the loaded configuration (i.e. undos all configuration changes made since
59                    startup or last save of configuration)
