Global Settings Window
Last update 05/05/2007
This dialog window is used to configurate settings that are common to many SoftMold functions. There two items that are handled by this dialog at this time. More items will be added in the future as needed.

1) Turning the Tool Tips On or Off.
The default setting has the tool tips turned on. If you are a new user I suggest you leave the Tool Tips turn on until you know your way around Softmold. When the Tool Tips are no longer helpfull to you can turn them off by unchecking the Tool Tip Ckeck box.

2) Setting up the preview window.
New to Version 5.5 is the 3D preview window. This window gives you a real time preview of the mold component be for you create it. You can rotate the component, zoom in or zoom out and pan the preview window. This dialog allows you setup the colors and default rendering mode. For more information about using the preview window
see this link Getting back to what you can do here. To can set the color of the mold component along with the background color and the rendering mode.
