1.1.6.3.5.1. Additional functions for $CADEANS_DEFAULTUSER

Under $CADENAS_DEFAULTUSER and $CADENAS_USER you will find most of the configuration files twice.

Administratively, in $CADENAS_DEFAULTUSER you can make all settings similar for all users.

In $CADENAS_USER local settings are saved. If you were to delete your personal files under $CADENAS_USER completely, they would be recopied from $CADENAS_DEFAULTUSER upon restarting.

Administratively you may define whether and how files and keys from $CADENAS_USER are to be overwritten from $CADENAS_DEFAULTUSER.

You have the following options:

  1. Key level:

    Select a key row and open the context menu.

    • Overwrite never : LWidth2=0.000000

      The key value is not overwritten.

      The font color switches to green.

    • Overwrite always : LWidth0=0.000000

      The key value is always overwritten.

      The font color switches to yellow.

      In this mode, local settings are written over each time the application is loaded again, so that a switch into the local file is not effective.

    • Delete

    The activated option is indicated with a checkmark and, in addition, changes are marked with yellow or green font color.

  2. Block level:

    Select a block and open the context menu.

    • Merge

      Same blocks from $CADENAS_DEFAULTUSER and $CADENAS_USER are merged.

    • Do not merge

      Same blocks from $CADENAS_DEFAULTUSER and $CADENAS_USER are not merged.

  3. File level:

    Select a configuration file and open the context menu.

    • Merge always :

      Same files from $CADENAS_DEFAULTUSER and $CADENAS_USER are merged.

      However, the keys, which are only located in the user directory, remain unchanged.

    • Merge newer :

      Same files from $CADENAS_DEFAULTUSER and $CADENAS_USER are merged.

      Those keys which are only located in the user directory, or have a more recent date, remain unchanged however.

    • Copy always :

      The default file replaces the "own" file in the user directory.

      In other words, the user cannot add or change anything.

    • Copy newer :

      For changes by the administrators, the file is copied. It may then be changed by the user.

    • Export as text file

    [Note] Note

    The activated option is identified by a checkmark.
