===== Global Options =====
**Note**\\ The functions of the ''Global Options'' menu are only executable by administrators.
It is also possible to reach this window by clicking the {{:om:user-options-symbol.jpg|}} symbol in the toolbar.
==== Colors ====
The coloring of the DHD Operation Manager can be adapted. Only users with administrative rights are able to create and modify color schemes, but every user can deploy these schemes. The configured color schemes can be found in the ''View'' menu (see also [[om:view_menu#color_schemes|View Menu]]). Moreover, it is possible to assign a color scheme to each workstation that is loaded by default during the start of the DHDOM.
In the ''Global Options'' window, select the ''Colors'' entry in the left-handed list. Two color schemes are predefined (Bright and Dark). The default color schemes can not be modified. To create a new scheme, select an existing one and click ''Copy''. ''Remove'' deletes the currently selected scheme.
[{{ :om:color_schemes.png |//Global options window, color schemes section//}}]
In the ''Label'' text box you can assign a name. If you deactivate the ''Flat Style'' option, a 3D border is shown around every list of the DHDOM window.
In the ''Colors'' list you can find several objects and elements of the DHDOM window. Click the colored area next to the element you want to adapt and choose another color. If you click the ''Reset'' button, a contextual menu with 3 options appears. ''To Last Saved'' resets the colors to the settings that were saved last. ''Bright Default'' and ''Dark Default'' loads the standard color settings of the predefined color schemes.
Press ''Apply'' to save your settings if you want to continue with the configuration or press ''OK'' to save and close the ''Global Options'' window. It is possible to undo all settings and reload the state you had saved last by pressing ''Close''.
==== Scheduler Options ====
Requires routing/scheduling license.
In the ''Scheduler Options'' section, some further settings regarding the schedule can be assigned.
[{{ :om:scheduler.png |//Global options window, scheduler options section//}}]
New inserted scheduled tasks that will become active within a certain time can be disabled by default. The factory setting is: ''Disable new scheduled task if it would be started within next 5 minutes''.
You can define a default duration for new created scheduled tasks or you activate the ''Create scheduled tasks always with "no duration"'' option if every new inserted task should be endless by default.
To keep the DHDOS database file small and the scheduler more clear, old scheduled tasks can be removed automatically after a certain time.
Press ''Reset'' to restore all scheduler options to default. Click ''Apply'' to save your settings if you want to continue with the configuration or press ''OK'' to save and close the ''Global Options'' window. It is possible to undo all settings and reload the state you had saved last by pressing ''Cancel''.
==== Snapshot Settings ====
The option ''Transfer Snapshot Names From Device'' allows the DHDOS / DHDOM to export the name of the snapshot when transferring a snapshot from the device to the computer and use it. By default, snapshots are only numbered consecutively.
[{{ :om:snapshot.png |//Global options window, snapshot settings section//}}]

=== PPM Default Type of Scale ===

===== User Options =====
Requires routing/scheduling license.
Each user can take up personal settings to optimize the operating process. The following options are available.
==== Program Behaviour ====
[{{ :om:user_options.png |//The User Options window.//}}]
* ''Routing Matrix: Responds to double click'': If this checkbox is active, it is only possible to set and disconnect crosspoints in matrices by double clicking them.
* ''Routing Matrix: Routing with confirmation'': A confirmation dialog will appear every time you trigger a crosspoint routing. The routing will only be performed when you click ''Yes''. Clicking ''Cancel'' aborts the operation.
{{ :om:confirmation.png }}
* ''Routing Matrix: Set Focus when the mouse moves over'': Normally the focus is set to the object you have used last. Activate this function to set the focus always to the matrix itself. Example: You have clicked the zoom+ button and afterward you are using the scroll wheel of the mouse. If the function is active, the matrix view will move up and down, but if it is not active, the matrix view will not move, because the focus is still set to the zoom+ button.
* ''Schedule Views: Set Focus when the mouse moves over'': Normally the focus is set to the object you have used last. Activate this function to set the focus always to the scheduler itself. Example: You have clicked the zoom+ button and afterward you are using the scroll wheel of the mouse. If the function is active, the scheduler view will move up and down, but if it is not active, the scheduler view will not move, because the focus is still set to the zoom+ button.
* ''Autosave Window Properties'': Autosaves the tabs/windows currently open. When the user logs in again, the last active tabs and windows will be reopened. When disabled, windows and tabs can be saved manually with the [[om:view_menu#save_opened_windows_as_default|View/Save opened Windows as default]] menu entry.
=== Channel Name Options ===
* ''Show extended names'': Show the extended names as they can be found and defined in [[tb8:io_overview|Toolbox8 / I/O Overview]].
* ''Show original names'': Show the original names as they would be shown by default now within brackets behind the channel name.
**Note**\\ These settings only affect the names of inputs/outputs / fixed processings shown in Routing / Scheduling applications. Remote view or DSP control are not affected.
Click ''Apply'' to save your settings if you want to continue with the setting of the user options or press ''OK'' to save and close the ''User Options'' window. It is possible to undo all settings and reload the state you had saved last by pressing ''Cancel''.
