Description

Skip minimised windows on Ctrl+Tab

When multiple Strand7 models are open, the keystroke Ctrl+Tab can be used to cycle though each Strand7 model window to bring each one to the foreground in turn. This option relates to the treatment of minimised Strand7 model windows when using Ctrl+Tab.

If set, minimised Strand7 model windows will be excluded from the cycle.

If not set, minimised Strand7 model windows will be normalised and included in the cycle.

Note that Ctrl+Tab cycles forward through the windows, while Shift+Ctrl+Tab cycles backwards.

STICKY WINDOWS: None/Gentle/Strong

A sticky window is one that snaps to the edge of the screen or to the Windows task bar when it is a few pixels away. This makes it easy to line up model windows neatly to your desktop's edges. A sticky window that is snapped to a screen edge will offer some resistance when an attempt is made to pull it away from the snapped edge. The strength of this resistance depends on the setting (None/Gentle/Strong).

Changes only take effect for newly opened models. The existing model maintains the setting as it was when the window was first opened.

CODEC:

Selects the Codec for AVI generation using Results: Animate.

Codec is the API that Strand7 uses to render each frame to the format required by the AVI file type. One or more of these APIs are usually available under Windows. Resulting file size and animation quality will vary between the Codecs.

LANGUAGE:

Selects the language for displaying the user interface.

The selected language dictates how text, buttons, and menus are presented. Variations in language may affect layout, character spacing, and overall interface readability, depending on the system locale settings and font support.

After changing language, Strand7 must be restarted for the changes to take effect.

Use factory defaults
