4.10 Configuring folder and file settings
STVD’s folder and file settings allow you to configure a subset of project settings that are
specific to certain folders and files in your project. Some files, such as header files in the
dependencies folder do not have configurable settings.
When the Project Settings window is open, access the settings for a file or folder by
selecting it in the directory tree on the left side of the window. The view will change to show
you the tabs that are available for the file or folder.
If the Project Settings window is closed, access settings for a file or folder by right-clicking
on it to get the Contextual menu. Then select Settings, and the Project Settings window
will open with the tabs that are available for the file or folder you have selected.
From this window, you can configure the settings that are specific to the selected file or
folder. Only those tabs containing settings that apply to the selected file/folder are displayed.
The settings you make here, override the settings made at the project level for the selected
file or folder. This section provides information about settings that are specific to folders and
files, including:
● General settings for files and folders
● Custom build tab
● Build commands
Otherwise, these tabs contain the same settings and options that are available at the project
level. For detailed descriptions of these tabs and their options refer to the Project Settings
section for your toolset. The appropriate sections are summarized in Table 56.
Note: No settings tabs are available for the Dependencies folder.
4.10.1 General settings for files and folders
The General tab is common to all toolsets and all files or folders.
If no settings can be configured for the selected file or folder, the Project Settings window
will open to the General tab, which will contain the message “No settings.”
When no options are checked, the tabs that are specific to your toolset and the selected file
or folder will be visible (see Table 56).
