Preferences configuration options

Use the Preferences tab to configure paths for images and icon, font defaults, and Universal Rendering defaults.

The Preferences tab consists of three sections:

Paths
Font overriding
Universal Rendering

Important: Changes are not applied until Apply is clicked. To discard changes, click Restore.

Paths

The Icon path can be set. It specifies the default icon for GDC. This is the default icon used for the taskbar, the systray icon (under Windows® systems), the shortcuts, the Terminals and applications.

Font overriding

These font overriding options can be set:

Default: Specifies the default font for GDC. This font will be used everywhere in your applications.
Monospace: Specifies the default fixed font for GDC. This font will be used when the fixed font attribute is defined.

Universal Rendering

Genero supports a Universal Rendering mode, to unify the display of application forms across all front-ends by using a common rendering solution based on HTML and GBC.

Enable Universal Rendering as the default rendering: When in the ON position, Universal Rendering is the default rendering. If Universal Rendering is enabled in the GDC monitor, the GDC will attempt to display all applications using the Universal Rendering mode, unless the application requests the display to use the native rendering mode.
When in the OFF position, Native Rendering is the default rendering.
