Confirmation Dialog Options

When working with ASCET, confirmation windows and hint windows are displayed at various points. You can hide these windows, if you like. In the Confirmation Dialogs node of the "Options" window, you can show hidden confirmation/hint windows ( symbol).

The main purpose of this node is to show confirmation/hint windows you have hidden while working with ASCET.

Note

It is explicitly not recommended to use the node to hide confirmation windows you have not yet seen in the program.

This node contains the following elements:

Each lists contains a table with two columns:

Show

Always available; the window is displayed if Show is selected.

Yes

Available if the window contains a Yes or Create new button.

No

Can be available if the window contains a No or Select other button.

OK

Available if the window contains an OK button.

Yes, No, and OK hide the window; further effects depend on the combination of option name and button.

Hide

Available for hint windows and for the automatic opening of the properties editor for new elements. Hide prevents automatic opening of the properties editor.

The confirmation/hint windows are structured as follows. Each window contains a message text, an option and up to three buttons.

Possible option names are Remember my Decision, Always save changes and Don't show this hint/message again.

Possible buttons are Yes, No, Create new, Select other, OK, Set the flag, Don't set flag, Remove, Keep, Save Changes, Revert Changes, Cancel.

The table summarizes the effects of the combinations of activated/deactivated options and buttons.
