Designer options Set the designer options via the "View|Options..." menu command. Here you can set the necessary units (centimeters, inches, pixels), and specify grid step for each unit. You can switch units in the designer as well, via double-clicking on the left part of the status line where the current units are displayed. You can also specify whether grid should be displayed, and align to grid. This can be performed via buttons in the "Standard" toolbar of the designer as well. You can set a font for the code editor window and for the "Text" object editor. If the "Use object's font settings" option is enabled, the font in the text editor window would correspond with the font of the edited object. If white background of the designer display field and service windows is not convenient for you,you can modify it via the "Workspace" and the "Tool windows" buttons. The "LCD grid color" option increases contrast of the grid lines a little, and it improves their visibility on LCD monitors. The "Show editor after insert" option controls the process of new objects inserting. If the option is enabled, its editor will be displa ed each time an object is inserted. When creating a large number of blank objects, it is recommended to disable the option. Disabling the "Show band captions" option, you can disable bands’ captions in order to save some place in a page. At that, the band’s captions would be written inside of it. The "Free band placement" option disables snapping of bands to the page. This option is disabled b default and bands are automatically grouped in page according to their function. A gap between bands can be set in the "Gap between bands" field.
