Settings

The Settings dialog (gear icon in the toolbar) has four sections.

Appearance

• The colour theme: light, dark, or following the system.
• The editor’s font size.

The light theme is caramellatte and the dark theme is coffee, the same DaisyUI themes used by the rest of the interface.

Editor

• Whether the preview is updated automatically.
• How long it waits after typing stops before updating.

Turning automatic updating off is useful for a very large manuscript on a slow machine, or when you want to type a long passage without redrawing the previews. The preview can then be refreshed when you are ready.

Stylesheets

The XSLT stylesheet used for the XSLT preview and for HTML and PDF export.

• Import Stylesheet adds your own .xsl file.
• Remove Selected removes it again. The built-in stylesheet cannot be removed.

A stylesheet is XSLT 1.0. The same stylesheet is used for every export, so changing it changes both the preview and the exported HTML and PDF.

See Preview for the page-by-page rendering declaration that makes large manuscripts fast.

Default Template

The template used for new projects.

Changing this setting does not affect the current document. To change the template of the document you are working on, use the template menu in the toolbar. See Templates.

Note

Your own entities and diplomatic forms are not in this dialog. They live in the entity browser and are stored with the application.
