Your STVD graphical environment UM0036
64/385 Doc ID 7705 Rev 11
When you open a file with end of line characters that are different from the default line
character style (the Editor is set to Windows style by default), STVD warns you and asks if
you want to change them to the default style.
If your file is read-only, STVD warns you that the characters are different from the default,
but cannot give you the option to change them.
In the Line Endings section of the Options window Debug/Edit tab, you can enable the
display of line endings and choose the line ending style to use. Table 22 summarizes the
line ending options.
Styles/Languages tab
The Syntax highlighting section allows you to modify the display characteristics used for
the display of syntactic items such as language-specific keywords, operators, comments,
and numbers. This is a machine-level configuration for STVD, which is applied to editable
files regardless of the project or workspace that you are in.
When making changes to the Editor display options, use the Apply button to see the effect
of the changes you have made. The Apply button is only available once you have clicked in
or modified a display option.
You can return to the original configuration at any time by clicking on the Reset button.

Show
When checked, an icon representing the end of each text line is displayed.
The icons are:
– CRLF for text files created under Windows
– LF for text files created under Unix
– CR for text files created under Mac
Style
This option allows you to indicate the type of end of line character to use
(Windows, Unix or Mac), by choosing the line character style from the Style
list. By default the Style is set to Windows. When you change the style, all of
the end of line characters in open files are changed to the new default setting.
