maximum number of DataSet backup files:

The number of backed up versions of a DataSet that should be kept (See Restoring a DataSet for details).

Automatic DataSet and Workspace save:

Set how often the DataSet and the STx INI should be saved (default = off) in minutes.

enable ASIO support:

Check this box to enable ASIO driver support. Otherwise only MME devices are supported.

use UNC file names

If checked, all file names used in DataSet files should be converted to their UNC equivalent when saving. This is recommended if more than one person is working on a DataSet file, and the users use mapped network drives. Here is a scenario, where this option will be useful.

User1 maps the server path \\server1\data to drive z. User2 maps the same server path to drive y. Both users are working on the same project, using the DataSet file \\server1\data\ds.xml. Sound files added to the DataSet by User1 would not be accessible by User2, if they were saved using User1's drive mapping. By using UNC file names, this kind of collaboration is possible.

Default Helpfile:

Choose the help file to be called by the key F1. The default is the User Guide.chm, which contains the documentation of the graphical user interface of STx. You can choose between the User Guide, the Programmer Guide or STx Help (both User Guide and Programmer Guide).

User Font:

The user ront is used in the Detail window.

Dialog Font:

The dialog ront is used for all dialogs in STx except those which use the User Font.

Working Directory:

The working directory is where STx opens and saves files by default.

Tempfile Directory:
