General Settings page contains application-wide settings.
All settings on this page are divided into several groups.
This group contains the following settings:
If enabled, the splash screen is displayed each time you launch the Hex Editor Neo. Splash screen remains visible during application startup and a few seconds later.
Tells the editor to always create backup copies of the file before saving changes to it. See the "Always create backups" option for more information.
If enabled, hexadecimal letters ('A' to 'F') are displayed in lower case, otherwise, in upper case.
Specified the default byte order used by new editor windows. Byte Order can then be changed for each individual editor window.
Specifies whether byte order change affects encoding of floating point types, float and double. The encoding of floating point types may be different for different platforms and files, so Hex Editor Neo provides you both methods.
Specifies the window switching style. See the Window Switching section for more information.
Specify the number of last recently used documents to display in the File menu.
When enabled, clicking the Close button on the tool window closes only this window, if disabled, an entire tool window frame is closed.
If enabled, Hex Editor Neo restores the last position of its main window on startup.
Can be "Every launch" (default), "Every week" or "Never". Specifies the frequency of checking for availability of new versions of the Hex Editor Neo.
Use all available bandwidth when downloading updates.
Hex Editor Neo may require significant free space on one of your volumes for differnt "heavy" operations. It makes a "best guess" on the required hard disk space amount before processing the operation and warns you if there is too little free space. You may switch this option off, but do it on your own risk!
This group contains the following settings:
Change the way multiple selection works in Hex Editor Neo. See the "Single Selection mode" option for more information.
The current selection is shifted if you type new data with Insert Mode ON. This is a potentially slow operation and is not performed if you have a complex selection.
Affects the visualization of long numbers in decimal view types. Uses the thousands separator defined in the current profile to increase the readability of long decimal numbers.
Specifies wether the cursor's address is displayed on the beginning of the current line.
Hex Editor Neo has several notifications that are displayed to inform you about an important event. All these notifications have "Do not display anymore" checkbox. If you checked this box and want to restore the default behavior, use the options in this group to do it.
This group contains the following settings:
When enabled, the editor automatically opens a named stream after it is created (using NTFS Streams » Create Stream… command).
This group contains the following settings:
When switched on, the editor ignores all coloring and prints the document in black and white. All highlighting is ignored and only selection is displayed on the paper (by inverting colors). When this option is switched off all highlighting is printed.
Print standard page header, which includes the document's name and current/total number of pages.
Print standard page footer, which includes the name of the application printed the document.
This group contains the following settings:
Specify the number of digits to be used while exporting single-precision floating-point numbers. See Formatted Data Format topic for more information.
Specify the number of digits to be used while exporting double-precision floating-point numbers. See Formatted Data Format topic for more information.
