General Settings Menu from Main Menu
From DelphMap’s main menu you can summon dialog boxes where you can
specify settings affecting imported files, colors to be used in displaying various
objects in DelphMap and settings to be applied to 2D and 3D Contacts. Such
settings apply to all layer types.
All Settings
If you choose All Settings , you get a dialog box with five tabs — one for
Files
, Tools, Pipe & Span Tracking, 2D Contacts and 3D Contacts.
Alternatively, you can choose separate dialog boxes for each of the named
tabs directly from Settings in the main menu.
Settings for Files
DelphMap has three settings that you can change or set for files. The
choices become available from the main menu by choosing Settings
→Files
or by choosing Settings →All Settings and then selecting the Files tab. The
current Working Folder path is displayed and to change it, click on the
ellipsis button. This brings up the Windows file browse dialog.
• Working Folder - The directory set here becomes the default directory
for DelphMap to open files from, and to place files generated by the
current project. This is also where the DelphMap project .dmp and
.dds_mpf files are stored.
Open the Last Opened Project on Startup - This does exactly what is
says, once a checkmark has been put in the box and the project is saved.
The next time DelphMap is opened, the current project will automatically be
loaded.
When inserting vector or single-band image layers, don’t ask for a
layer name. -
This represses the insert dialog box that asks for a layer
name when inserting certain file types.
An unchecked box (setting disabled) is the default condition for this
parameter for these last two options.
