Confirmations

These settings let you specify whether ChaosPro should display a confirmation message box if a delete operation is about to be performed.

Ident Responsible for
Convert FormulaIf this checkbox is checked, ChaosPro will ask when it wants to convert an old formula type fractal to the new type 'Escapetime'. If not checked, ChaosPro will silently convert old fractals.
Delete PaletteIf checked, ChaosPro will ask when you try to delete a palette.
Delete Fractal TaskIf checked, ChaosPro will ask if you try to close a fractal window and thus are about to discard the calculated data.
Delete FormulaIf checked, ChaosPro will ask when you try to delete a formula.
Delete Fractal ProjectIf checked, ChaosPro will ask for your confirmation if you delete a fractal project.
Delete KeyframeIf checked, ChaosPro will ask when you try to delete an animation keyframe.
Delete FractalIf checked, ChaosPro will ask when you try to delete a fractal and thus to completely destroy all fractal data associated with it.
Unsaved Changes on ExitIf this item is not checked, then as soon as you choose to close the application, ChaosPro will exit. All your changes then are lost! If this item is checked, ChaosPro will warn you if you try to exit the program, but some of your changes have not been saved. So I recommend to leave this item checked!


Other Settings

  • Save Configuration on exit: If checked, ChaosPro will save all configuration settings when it exits. If not checked, the configuration won't be saved at all, you have to save the configuration manually by choosing the menu item!

  • Username: Here you can specify your username. The name will be used in the credit list and as value for the predefined variables [author] and [modified_by].
