The Imagenation INI file (image.ini by default) is a text file that stores all of the Imagenation default values.
SRC file keynames that are set to a value of 2 unlock a corresponding keyname in the Imagenation INI file. This allows users, such as system administrators, to configure their own copies of Imagenation instead of the integrator dictating its operation globally through a CFG file. INI keynames that can be locked and unlocked are in the [System] section of the SRC file.
Through the Preference menu, you can open a dialog box that allows you to set global preferences for Imagenation. These preferences can be saved to the Image.ini file so that they can be used from session to session by clicking the Save button in the dialog box.
The Preference Options dialog box also contains a Reset button that restores the settings last saved in the INI file.
You have two options to control changes to the INI file. In the [System] section of the SRC file:
· Remove the Save and Reset buttons from the Preference Options dialog box with the "save and reset buttons in file prefs=0" and the "remove unused dialog items=1" keynames. For details, see Removing items from a dialog box and [System] Section: Keynames for Dialog Boxes.
· Set "force save when ini settings change=1" if you want the image.ini file to be saved each time settings are changed in the Preferences dialog boxes.
For more information on the INI file, refer to the System Administrator Help (sysadmin.hlp), which is installed with Imagenation. For details about changing INI file values, see Editing the INI file.
