General Tab

The General tab contains the following options:

• Close Completed Execution Displays on Execution Start —Closes all completed Execution windows automatically when you start a new execution.
• Disable 'View User Manager' Command —Disables the User Manager menu and toolbar items.
• Allow Editing of Read-Only Files —When you enable this option, you can make changes in the TestStand Sequence Editor to files marked as read-only on disk. You cannot save changes to the read-only file. You must save the file with a new name to preserve any changes.
• Show List View Tooltips —Disables the tooltip that displays the entire contents of a field. A tooltip is useful for viewing a field longer than the column that displays the field.

• File Menu MRU List Size for Sequence Files —Specifies the number of sequence files that appear in the File Menu MRU list.
• File Menu MRU List Size for Workspace Files —Specifies the number of workspace files that appear in the File Menu MRU list.
• Save before Running —Configures the sequence editor to never save modified files, to always save modified files, or to prompt you to save modified files before running.
• Back Up Sequence Files when Resaving in Older or Newer Format —Configures the sequence editor to never backup, always backup, or to prompt you to backup sequence files you resave with an older or newer format.
