Edit common and user-defined settings

The action opens the option dialog, which allows updating or creating option values for the application. Options may be defined as common and as user-defined options. When starting the applications, COMMON options are loaded first and might be overwritten by user-defined (or default) option settings.

Options may be referred to in OSI actions ( Option class) and in application designer. Since options are stored within the database, they will get lost, when recreating the database. In order to reuse options updated or created later on, those have to be exported to an ini- or configuration (xml) file when being changed.
