Prompt on Emulation Change:Select to have PlanetPress Workflow prompt when the
default process emulation is being changed. The last emulation selected when
debugging a process is the one the process begins with.
l
Prompt on Form Refresh:Select to have PlanetPress Workflow prompt for confirmation
when recompiling the PostScript (PSx)version of a PlanetPress Connect Document.
Refreshing PlanetPress Connect Documents that are currently in use can lead to
unexpected results.
l
Prompt on Saving with Unknown Task:Select to have PlanetPress Workflow prompt
for confirmation when saving a configuration file or sending the configuration to the
PlanetPress Watch service, when any process contains Unknown Tasks. If an Unknown
Task is present, such as when a process was created with a PlanetPress Workflow
license that is not the same as the current one, the settings for this task will be lost when
saving or sending to the service.
l
Display Generic Splitter Found Message:Select to have PlanetPress Workflow prompt
when a Generic Splitter task is found in any of the configuration's processes. The
Generic Splitter task is maintained because of its historical purpose but should no longer
be used since it can almost always be replaced by more specialized and efficient
splitters.
l
Warn on Component Rename:Select to have PlanetPress Workflow prompt for action
when configuration components, such as processes, are imported from an external
configuration file. Imported components can overwrite existing components, or be
renamed automatically with unique names.
