You can change a number of settings used to control the Easy Automation Script Editor, as well as the Easy Automation Script Manager, and Easy Automation Script Runner using the 'Options...' dialog. To open the options dialog click on the 'Options' button in the 'Settings' section of the menu bar in the Script Editor, or right click on the Script Manager icon on the task bar and choose the 'Options...' menu.

The settings are broken up into categories: General Settings, Script Manager Settings, Script Runner Settings, and Script Editor Settings. Each section effects a different application, except the General Settings, which have an effect on all the applications.

To change the value of a option click on its value in the list. Some settings can be edited directly and for others you can use the '...' button that shows up when you click on the setting's value. When you are done click on 'OK' to save your changes or 'Cancel' to discard them.

NOTE - If you want to have ERRORs emailed to you or use any of the e-mail functions you must setup your e-mail account in the settings (see the settings below.)

NOTE - Most options will not take effect until the application is shut down and restarted.



Here is a list of some of the settings and what each they do...

• Automatic Updates - if this is set to "yes" then the Easy Automation will automatically check for updates and notify you when new versions are available.
• Show Title Screen - if this is set to "yes" the title screen will be displayed when the application starts up.
• Logfile Name - the name and location of the log file.
• Days to Keep - each day the log file is archived and a new one is started. This setting controls how many days of archived log files to keep.
• Log Level - this is the log level that used when logging. Normally this will be left at the "INFO" level but you may be asked by support to set it lower if an error occurs in the application.
• Mail Server Address - the address of the smtp server you use to send mail (like smtp.gmail.com).
• Mail Server Port - the port the smtp server listens on.
• Mail Server Name - the username you need to log into your email account (if needed to send emails).
• Mail Server Password - the password you need to log into your email account (if needed to send emails).
• Mail Server SSL - some mail servers (like gmail) require SSL, most do not.
• Admin E-mail - if this is set any ERROR or FATAL level log statements will be emailed to this address.

There are other settings not listed above. If you click on the name of any setting, a description of what the setting does will be displayed in the bottom panel of the 'Options...' dialog. The part of the description in [] is the official name of the setting used in the getSetting() and setSetting() script calls.
