The Options menu contains settings which users may change at any time to further customize their use of PlanTest. Application Settings allow users to change the functionality of the software for examination and investigation.
PlanTest 4.0 introduced a new title bar menu that reduces wasted screen space. The default menu splits the Options and Layout menus to the right, with all examination menus to the left. Selecting the classic menu puts these menus on the left as well, following older menu styles.
This option will preserve the current layout across PlanTest examination sessions. Any changes made to layout or options will be saved on closing and restored on startup.
The Main Map toolbars are on the application toolbar by default, to save screen space. This option moves the toolbars to the main map, making them closer to the map, especially if you move the main map to a location away from the main toolbar. (See image below for example of toolbars on the main map.)
If you have the inset map open, this option will draw a blue outline of the inset map on the main map. This is useful to help locate the inset map location when zoomed in, especially if you have selected auto-zoom behavior for the inset map, and are navigating features from the test results table or looping through "Next Error".
