Setup Utility

The Setup Utility enables users to change selected initialization settings in usys.ini without restarting the application. It can be added to the system menu of an MDI Uniface desktop application.

To enable the Setup utility in your application, in the Property Inspector of the application shell, click the ellipsis in the Window/App to open that properties dialog, then select Setup.

To display the Setup utility in the application, click the icon in the application title bar to display the application menu, and then choose Setup.
