User Guide GeoDMS GUI - GUI Options dialog

dialog

The GUI Options dialog can be activated from the Settings main menu option.

The following options can be set:

TreeView

  • Follow OS layout: By default the TreeView presents tiny light grey lines, supporting the user in relating subitems to their parent items. Seldom, in some configurations, drawing these lines caused issues; in these cases enable this option. The default style of the Operating System is now used for the TreeView.
  • Show hidden items: Tree Items can be configured to be hidden in the tree (by configuring the property: isHidden = "True"). If so configured, the option Show hidden items shows or hides these items in the TreeView.
  • Show state colors: By activating this option, colors are used in the TreeView to indicate the status of a tree item. Colors can be selected for the three mentioned statuses.

Map View

  • Background color: The background color (by default white) for the Map View can be set here.
  • Default classification ramp colors: for default classifications in the Map View, a color ramp is used for which a start and end color can be set.
  • Minimum pixel size for drawing polygons: on a large scale, small polygons might become invisible. With this setting polygons that are drawn less than the configured pixel size at a certain scale are not drawn. Increasing this size makes drawing a polygon layer faster. The PenWidth/PenWorldWidth settings are not taken into account while deciding on whether or not to draw a polygon.

Table/Statistics View

  • Show thousand separator: A thousand separator in numbers can be set to make (large) numbers easier to read.
