Interface settings
Overview
Interface settings is the dialog for adjusting how AnalyticsCreator displays the application interface. It controls colors, diagram sizing, navigation-tree spacing, and page layout preferences.
Function
The dialog groups visual settings into four tabs: Colors, Diagram, Navigation tree, and Pages. Use these settings to tune the appearance of diagrams, object boxes, connector lines, navigation-tree items, detail pages, and list pages.
The dialog can also load one of three predefined visual profiles with Default 1, Default 2, or Default 3. Choose Save to store the settings and refresh the architecture view. Choose Cancel to close the dialog without applying the current edits.
Access
Open Interface settings from the Options toolbar when you need to adjust the visual presentation of AnalyticsCreator.
