Setting default Environment Options
« on: October 15, 2006, 04:05:58 pm »
How do I make the changes I make to the environment options stick? When I close Lazarus and re-open they are lost.

Which changes are you referring to?
What's in a sig? Would my posting look less if it didnot have a sig? (Free after William S.) :)

How about the width of the main menu? And I don't like to see the grid or have Snap to Grid enabled.

I tried in 0.9.18. Removing "Show grid" check made the grid disappear, also after restarting Lazarus. Window placement seems to get lost. I guess that is broken somewhere before release of 0.9.18 (tested on Linux). The width's of the windows are preserved. However not all windows are restored.
So in short there seems to be a bug (at least in GTK widget) with regard to windows restore after a restart. 'Snap to Grid' and 'Show Grid' are working.

To have your Windows restored like you left them when closing Lazarus go to Environment Options -> Windows and choose Custom position for the visible windows.
But Code-Explorer window is still not restored :(

Under Windows, any changes I have made to the settings are lost when I exit Lazarus. I have used Custom position for the Main Menu. Show Grid and Snap to Grid are also forgotten.
