Load&save options

Common options

Default working path : This specify the directory of open, save as, add directory ... dialog boxes should open on. This is set once when GTKtalog starts. If you open a catalog file in a different directory as the 'Default working path', all subsequent dialog boxes will open on this different directory.

Load options

Load file at boot : Check this option to automatically open a catalog file when GTKtalog launches. If checked, you must provide the catalog file path either by typing it or using the browse button to select one.

Save options

Autosave : Check this option to periodically save your catalog files. If checked, you must specify the 'Time between autosaves (in minutes)'. This number can be between 1 and 60 minutes.

Compression : Compression ratio of your catalog files. Compression ratio ranges from 0 (no compression) to 9 (maximum compression)

Save only used categories : All unused categories are deleted from a catalog file when it is saved

Keep a backup file : A ".bak" file resides in your catalog file directory with the last working version. For more information see Chapter 3
