Setting other application options

The User Options section of the Preferences dialog box lets you specify default folders for new projects and templates and choose whether the Project Launcher dialog box is displayed on startup and whether temporary files created by the project are retained or deleted.

Here's how to set these options:

  1. To set the application's default folders, specify or select the following:
    • Default Folder for New Projects
    • This option specifies the default location for storing WebWorks Publisher Standard Edition projects. The default value is the Projects folder in the WebWorks Publisher Standard Edition installation directory. To specify a new folder, click the Browse button to select a directory from the Select Project Directory dialog box.

    • Default Folder or Share for Templates
    • This option specifies the default location for storing WebWorks Publisher Standard Edition templates. The default value is the Projects folder in the WebWorks Publisher Standard Edition installation directory. To specify a new folder, click the Browse button to select a directory from the Select Template Directory dialog box.

  2. By default, the Project Launcher dialog box is automatically displayed each time WebWorks Publisher Standard Edition is launched. If you do not the dialog box to display automatically, deselect the Automatically display product launcher dialog on setup check box.
  3. To automatically delete a project's temporary files when the project or application is closed, select the Remove temporary files when a project is closed or application exits check box. While having all temporary files deleted saves disk space, it also forces WebWorks Publisher to recreate the same intermediate files each time the project is opened, which can be time-consuming.
