Settings

Global settings are accessible from the top menu with File then Settings. Changes are automatically applied and save (with exception of the language which requires a restart of RCode). You can restore the default value using the return circle on the right of the field which appears when you hover the field.

Each section in this page is associated to a tab on the left menu in the settings panel.
