Setting Tools Options
There are several options in Siebel Tools that you can set to facilitate your configuration work. These options are available by choosing View Options, and then choosing the tab for the options you want to configure. Some of the options are described below.
- Language Setting Tab. These settings define your working language in Siebel Tools. Objects can have locale-specific attributes. For example, text strings such as an applet title can be defined in several languages.
The Tools Language Mode determines the locale-specific data that is:
- Displayed in the Tools interface
- Available to edit
- Compiled to the .srf file
- Transferred to and from the server during the check in/check out process
You can see what your current Tools Language Mode is in the status bar located in the lower right corner of the Siebel Tools interface.
The Enable Language Override check box allows you to edit locale-specific attributes. When you select this check box you can switch between the following two modes:
- Base. When working in this mode, changes made to locale-specific attributes are stored in the base table. The changes apply to all languages.
- Language Override. When working in this mode, changes are stored in a child locale table. That is, the attribute is overwritten for the current language.
When the Enable Language Override check box is not selected, you can work in base mode only.
For more information about language modes, see Siebel Tools Reference.
- Check In/Out Tab. This setting defines the development server database and your local client database to be used in the check in/check out process.
- Web Template Editor Tab. Use this setting to define a default Web template editor. When working in the Web Layout Editor you can click the Edit Template button on the toolbar to open the Web template using a default editor.
