The color of the object when |
||
Highlighting |
A field that displays the current color that the highlighted objects have during command execution. To change the color, click in the field. |
|
Selection |
A field that displays the current color of selected objects when no command is running. Selecting an object is required, for example, to edit its parameters or to use it later when executing a command. To change the color, click in the field. |

Show turned off layers of selected composite objects |
Enable this option so that when selecting composite objects, the elements located on layers whose drawing is currently disabled will be visible (see the Changing the layer state section for more information about layer state management). Composite objects include groups (see the Named groups section), fragment inserts (see the Inserting a fragment section), macro elements (see the Macro elements section). |
|
Always show the fill with the set color |
Enable this option so that when you select a fill, only its outline is selected and the color of the fill itself does not change. If this option is disabled, when you select a fill, its color changes to the color set for the selected objects. |
|
Always show drawings in their original colors |
Enable this option so that when you select a drawing, only its outline is highlighted and the colors of the drawing itself are not changed. If this option is disabled, when you select a drawing, its colors are replaced by the shades of the color set for the selected objects. |
|
Scale factor |
The field allows you to set the ratio of increasing or decreasing the image in the window when you press the key combinations <Ctrl>+<+> and <Ctrl>+<-> respectively or when you rotate the mouse wheel once. |
|
Mouse shift insensitivity zone, mm |
The field allows you to set the minimum amount of mouse movement (for example, when shifting selected objects), after which the system starts to react to the movement. This setting is introduced to block accidental mouse movements (e.g. when the hand shakes, table jolts, etc.) and to prevent unforeseen actions with drawing objects. The size of the dead zone is defined in millimeters, and the scale of the current image has no effect on this value. |
|
Cancellation of operations |
||
Number of steps backwards |
The field allows you to set the number of operations that can be canceled and repeated during operation. Increasing this value increases the amount of system resources (memory) to support the list of executed operations, so the number of steps should be reasonable. It is recommended to set the number in the range from 10 to 30. |
|
Group similar operations |
Enable this option to have multiple consecutive actions performed to select or scale objects saved in the undo list as a single action. This will cancel or repeat all combined actions at once. For example, consecutive scaling of the same objects was performed. If the grouping option has been enabled, clicking Undo will return to the state before the very first scaling of objects. |

After completing the settings, click the dialog box Apply and close. To exit the dialog box without changing the settings, click Cancel.
